Have you noticed this year fall trends are all about textures? From faux fur to suede and leather to lace, heck even corduroy is making a mark in the trend guides! Yessssss, girl! Of course, there is one fabric that that is always a holiday go to! This opulent find is velvet. This luxe fabric ruled the fall runways and is everywhere in plus size fashion (thank you for paying attention designers!). And before you begin to think velvet is just for the holidays, I’m doing what I do best-rounding up 15 plus size velvet pieces you will want to rock now and through the holiday season!
And while velvet is luxurious, it often conjures images of dresses and tuxedo jackets, HOWEVER COMMA, plus size brands and designers are changing things up and interpreting it into casual pieces and outfits, which is making velvet more fun to wear. On trend this moment, designers and brands just can’t seem to get enough of this soft, rich fabric. From chokers, shoes and booties to moto jackets and full length trench coats. Velvet really is popping up everywhere and we are alllllllll the way here for it!
Take a step away from the transitional look and feel of velvet and have a little fun with it! Are you ready to see what we are talking about? Keep scrolling!

I believe there are no rules when it comes to velvet. It’s the type of fabric that just has several personalities — ’70s rocker chic, sexy, playful, fashion risk-taker and festive. It’s just as versatile as the white shirt -mix and match it with denim, metallic, lace and even leather. You can dress it up or down and it transitions easily into your fall and winter wardrobe.

OMG! I am obsessed with all thing velvet right now!I also had to research what was the difference between velvet and velour, because I was using the terms interchangeably on the blog. I discovered ELVI because of this post and I hate you for it!! haha
I wish we had more plus retailers in Canada though, the British taxes make it so expensive to ship over here!
