VELVET REVOLVER

The Return to Plush

Long gone are the days of the unpleasant connotations of velvet from the 80's, 2018 brings soft, plush pleasant tones of jewels and metals that conjure up images of luxury and high-street design.

 

 

Getting the blues

Blue velvet pairs beautifully with almost every other colour and texture. Yes, even black.

The grass is always greener: Greens and blues combine for fantastical effect.

 

 

A shoe in

If a velvet jacket or pantsuit feels too daring, contemplate a pair of velvet shoes or bag. Jewel-toned velvet shoes will the easily provide just the right amount of plush to any outfit.
