Blue velvet

68-640x428

Maybe some of you get confused with the omonym film, however we are not going to talk about cinema but for velvet and it’s return; an Art Deco origin that is making a comeback this year. Seen on the catwalks as well as on Maison&Objet, velvet is here for accompanying us during the new season.

With its chic look, and simple elegance, it is without a doubt that velvet creates a sense of elegance that no fabric can. Whether it is a dress, on shoes, a handbag, or even a sofa, velvet has reinvented itself again and again over the years. What originated as a fabric for the wealthy, who used velvet in their outfits strictly for special occasions, has transformed into a fabric that can recreate an entire look, apartment, space or some elegant details.

Plain, patterned, and printed silk velvets have made a come back in this years trends, giving us a touch of  luxury. Take a look and be inspired!
