Velvet Work

Velvet is a majestic, rich, soft, dense fabric with a lustrous sheen made originally from silk. The fabric exudes a look and feel of royalty and looks beautiful in any form of outfit. It used to be made from silk but is now also made from cotton, linen, polyester and other blended fabrics owing to considerations of rising costs and usage. A special weaving process lends velvet its characteristic, rich and dense appearance. It is a luxurious fabric with a soft and distinctive sheen. The threads are not uniformly woven but are woven between layers and then cut into a pile. There are various types of velvet, such as silk velvet, crush velvet, cotton velvet, and velveteen, which has a little less lustre compared to other varieties and appears matte. The velvet fabric reflects light, which gives it its characteristic sheen. This is a versatile fabric and the uses are not just limited to outfits, but it also plays a key role in upholstery and home décor such as curtains, pillow covers, table runners etc.
