Smooth, Supple: Unmistakably Pure Black Velvet
It's true — this velvet is solid black and relatively unadorned. However, you will realize that it's far from basic when you see it in person. Perhaps most importantly, the material is one of the most opulent and luscious fabrics available. The craftsmanship of the custom tailoring heightens the apparent simplicity. The little details put on the finishing touches, making this a vest fit for a queen.
In fact, velvet was once reserved for nobility, as were many of the fabrics in your eveningwear repertoire. These days, you don't have to live in a castle to enjoy the legendary softness and supple texture of this cloth — but this vest would make you feel right at home among dukes and princes.
Of course, there's more to this material than sensuous texture and storied history. One of the nicest things about true velvet is the way your eye plays across the surface. There's a unique effect — created by the light traveling down each strand of the pile and reflecting off of the base weave — that is only achieved by the laborious weaving process characteristic of this fabric.
Even among fabrics with similar visual qualities — those that shimmer and shine almost like the surface of water — velvet alone retains a touchable softness and superior drape. That means that your vest will conform beautifully to your natural lines, flattered by the mysterious sheen of the material. The flared cut simultaneously accentuates your figure and provides a more comfortable fit.
This garment is designed with custom buttons wrought in a radial motif. The choice allows you the versatility you need to create beautiful outfits centered around this luxurious piece. Natural jewelry combinations are pearls, gold and diamonds. Other gemstones and precious metals work well too, as long as they're polished. Velvet is a perfect pair to your sophisticated wardrobe favorites. Wear this vest buttoned down on formal occasions, or open it for a layered look with an element of red carpet panache.
