Velvet: Silky and sumptuous. An elegant fabric with a noble taste, so delicate to the touch that it is the softest of the cold season.
What does it mean to be elegant in Winter 2018? Wear a velvet dress. After 2016 saw the great return of this precious fabric, it seems that fashion cannot do without it. Velvet is not only one of the most refined fabrics in the wardrobe but also one of the strongest trends of this season. On the catwalks of the Fall Winter 2017-2018 fashion shows was velvet mania in all respects.
So velvet, yes, but colorful !!! It is perhaps the most aristocratic fabric but obviously there is velvet and velvet: the smooth and soft fabric will give your look a more elegant and refined allure.
Whether it’s a skirt, a top, a body, a jacket, a pair of trousers, or a dress, it makes no difference: immediately buy a garment with this fabric!!!
How to combine it and wear it again with another allure? Roma Luxury takes inspiration from the catwalks
Corduroy (another name of velvet) has always been part of the vintage and vaguely hippie imagery. On one hand we witnessed an authentic revival of ribbed velvet in a70s and super casual version, like Prada did with velvet flared trousers on the bottom combined with trucker jacket (sporty and with the neck strictly in faux fur); Max Mara and Dolce & Gabbana opted for a luxury velvet tailleur to wear during your business meeting, but always perfect even after your work day if you will plan to relax with a class of champagne in a luxury aperitif.

On the other hand there was a veritable boom of velvet in a soirée version. In particular, however, the gowns are a must have this season and have been chosen by the greatest celebrities to be the protagonists of their special evenings or Keira Knightley chose a red dress by Valentino, while Nicole Kidman opted for an Armani. In both cases a sophisticated and regal allure is perceived.
Bright, silky and in the finest shades of the palette – from red to burgundy, from black to blue, from gold to green – it is the perfect style ally to wear at this time of year, for evenings with a high rate of elegance, for a day of shopping but also for your business meetings. You will see, you will not resist the magic of the noblest of fabrics.
