VELVET CRUSH

There’s a new kid on the block when it comes to upholstery fabrics. Its bold, Its soft, its luxurious and its VELVET! That’s right folks, velvet is back and its better than ever. I know what you’re thinking but don’t worry, this luxurious fabric has come a long way since your grandmas dusty rose velvet sofa. Keep reading to find out what this fabric trend has to offer.

 

 

Why velvet? This fabric is known to be a symbol of luxury throughout history and will instantly elevate the look of your space. Velvet has been gaining popularity over the past few years in the luxury furniture and high fashion world. Lucky for you velvet products can now be found at virtually any retail store, which means its accessible AND affordable for us commoners.

 

 

Velvet is one of the most striking fabrics out there, and if you’re planning to bring this trend into your space I suggest you go bold or go home. While you’re shopping around for your new velvet accent you’ll notice a few solid colors. Its usually available in navy blue, green, pink, or grey. Here are the styles each color would fit into.

Navy blue is for the sophisticated interior. If your home is full of class navy blue is for you. Navy blue will stand out best in a white space, but also mixes well with grays and other blues.

 

 

 

 

Green is for the bold boho interior. If your house has a neutral palate with wood accents I think a velvet green pop would do well in your space. The strong green can be easily balanced with house plants.

 

 

 

 

Pink is for feminine and delicate interiors. Imagine a single girls apartment, or a little girls room.

 

 

 

 

Grey, my favorite color for velvet, can be seamlessly added to any interior that is lacking a little snazzy accent. Grey pairs so well with almost any color scheme and will never go out of style.
