Our Favorite Velvet Pieces — and How to Wear Them

Velvet: you either love it or you hate it.

Velvet: you either love it or you hate it. We, of course, love the luxe seasonal trend seen on Fall runways from designers like Proenza Schouler — check out those amazing pants — Nina Ricci, Mary Katrantzou, and Marc Jacobs to name a few. Pair it with wool blazers and sweaters for an extra textural ensemble, or go casual and wear it with denim jeans or a chambray top for a cool off-duty look. That said, we culled our velvet favorite picks for you to add to your wardrobe in the slideshow. Also, check out our quick styling tips below on how to wear the trend.

  • Balance out a velvet top or pant with tailored pieces, like a wool blazer or trousers, for a polished appeal.
  • A little velvet can go a long way. If you're shy to wearing the trend, try out the trend via a bag or pumps.
  • Treat a pair of velvet pants or leggings like a pair of jeans during the Winter. They're super cozy and add the perfect twist to any ensemble.
