Fashion Trend: Vibrant in Velvet

Velvet has been around for decades and continues to reemerge on fashion runways and in designer clothing through the seasons. We love the lush, warmth and smooth finish of this very versatile textile. Bright velvet is very much in style and was all over the catwalks, and littered throughout some of our favourite high-street stores. Let’s take a closer look at how velvet is making a comeback in fashion this season!

Accessories Prada remains on the cutting edge of design with this fabulous new, compact shoulder bag in gorgeous velvet, expertly designed in super luxe, berry tones, in a fabulous colour-block style. The gold hardware also gives it a magical finish- with the iconic logo making it instantly identifiable. Serious arm candy credentials. Pants Velvet is stylish and timeless, and we love the look in a simple yet elegant velvet pants. Wear it up with a matching blazer for the ideal business look, or go more casual with a simple T-shirt in complimenting tones. The Velvet Dress A simple velvet dress is a staple for any modern woman. We love the look of a modern skater dress in velvet as this style easily flatters many shapes and covers a multitude of sins!

Go for a bold colour such as crimson or red and make a statement with vibrant jewellery selections to add elegance to your overall look. Pair with a simple pearl necklace and heels, and you’re all set. Great for your next Christmas party! Velvet Flats Think outside of the box and invest in a trendy set of velvet shoes for a very contemporary look. Velvet flats or pumps in a fun colour will add a burst of energy to your outfit, and will definitely show your creative flair.   Image: 1 and 2
