sometimes it takes a pattern a couple tries to get off the ground. a number of years ago, velvet was around autumn runways, however it seemed like purchasers for retail stores weren’t, well, buying it–the velvet pieces went largely unproduced and, in turn, shoppers focused on other things. Now, though, brands are providing velvet one more shot, as well as for autumn 2016, it feels like the time is right for accessories in this luxurious fabric.
We’re seeing a great deal of velvet in both bags as well as shoes, however today, we’re right here to focus on bags. (More on the shoes next week!) When it comes to high-end goods, velvet has a few obvious advantages: First, it’s incredibly luxe-looking as well as pleasant to touch, which makes it a much more fitting leather alternate for high-end pieces than most other fabrics. Second, velvet bags are usually a bit less costly than their leather counterparts, which is excellent when you’re going for a seasonal look.
Fall as well as winter dressing are all about layering rich structures as well as colors, as well as velvet is an suitable method to spruce up your typical jeans-and-sweater combo. Below, inspect out our preferred velvet bags from the season so far.
