What to wear with?
No matter how self-sufficient, chic and capricious velvet may be, nevertheless it goes well with other fabrics of various textures.
For fashionistas, this fact opens up boundless spaces in the choice of outerwear for a velvet dress. One of the best solutions is the choice of a lace or satin bolero. But these are not the only options available, chiffon, cashmere and silk are still available.

If the dress has a muted shade, then the outerwear simply has to be bright. And vice versa - it is necessary to combine more restrained things with a bright dress. A long velvet model requires a selection of cropped pieces of a wardrobe, while short dresses will look good with outerwear of any length.




You should not choose bright shoes under a velvet outfit. It will be enough to put on laconic satin shoes from the same color scheme as the dress, but in a more muted and calm shade.



Be sure to consider the fact that velvet makes the look heavy. Therefore, shoes should smooth out this effect, be light and as gentle as possible. A categorical taboo is on velvet and suede shoes, which, together with a velvet dress, will only demonstrate bad taste.

The combination of a velvet dress with a high heel is the standard of good taste. And the fullness of the figure will be slightly smoothed in this way.

Decorations

But it is not advisable to use jewelry, it will stand out against the background of expensive material and at the same time have not the best look.
