The Fall 2017 and 2018 seasons showed the resurgence of velvet, with likes of Saint Laurent, Frame and Nomia awash in its opulence. With this latest revival, velvet is getting a proper update, and is no longer relegated to robes and smoking jackets.

And while it might have had a serious relationship with nightlife before, we dare say that there’s no better place to rock velvet than at the office. Hey, at least the AC is on full blast.

A sleek and sharp pink velvet suit is the very height of fashion. Opt for other materials, like leather and metals, to complement the look.
