As far as fabrics go, nothing looks quite as rich and inviting as velvet. Whether you’re going for a slinky, sultry evening look or a sophisticated work vibe, velvet hits the mark every time — which is why we’re so excited this '90s trend is back in a big way for fall.

From luxe ankle boots to jaw-dropping party dresses, we’ve rounded up the velvet pieces you need to know now.

Tops

When it comes to velvet tops, our advice is to avoid anything too tight or short — unless you're layering it over a T-shirt. Instead, let the sumptuous material steal the show and opt for a simple yet pretty silhouette.
