Lilify's New Wool Apparel

Posted on November 7th, 2019 by Lilify

With the cooling temperatures and a chill in the air, Lilify is delighted to release our wool collection. These silhouettes are our most popular layering pieces and they are ever so elevated by the elegance of the material.

The lightweight wool, unlined, offers a drape to the garments that is both cozy and classic. These pieces, like all of our signature apparel, are designed in house and hand sewn in Monterey.

We are beyond thrilled to introduce our Lilify line in lightweight wool. There are currently three patterns offered in both black and white: the Sonia (cropped jacket), the Ines (long jacket), and the Coco (long cape). You can view them all on our website.

All wool garments are made to order and have a lead time of 2-3 weeks. Lilify is located at 281 Lighthouse Avenue in Monterey.
