A fabric of the Renaissance is making an appearance, in all its glory. The biggest trend for Fall 2016 is velvet EVERYTHING. The thicker fabric is perfect for fall and immediately lends some glamour or edge to your outfit.

Be it stunning gowns showing enough skin to modernize the time-old fabric or slightly more conservative cuts embellished to the nines, velvet can be worn any way you please. Glam it up, punk it up, plunge the neckline, raise the neckline, bring back the Renaissance, or bring back the 70’s.

It’s easy to combine with the 70’s trend continuing from summer (who DOESN’T love the 70’s?), add as an accessory, or finish your look using it as outerwear. When it comes to this trend, the world is your velvety oyster.
