Velvet is one of the best looking fabrics around. Over the ages it has been used in varying colors, shades and designs to display a look of luxury and class. It is woven in a special kind of loom which weaves two pieces at the same time. The velvet can be crushed type or common.

In some cases velvet is blended with other fabrics of varying properties. Velvet is used to give upholstery, table clothes, curtains, bed sheets etc. a rich look. Purple, maroon, red and black are one of the most popular colors used for velvet fabric. Velvet is used for apparels as well where designers use graphic splicing, burn-out effects and dazzling colors. Flowing dresses with beautiful drapes are generally made by mixing velvet with silk and rayon to optimize the properties of the individual fabrics. The durability of velvet, its elegant look and the special care in weaving it make it one of the best fabrics.
