Dress like royalty
By Janine Giorgenti
The new hottest wedding look is the velvet tuxedo coat, and this is catching on like absolute wildfire!
Inspired by Baroque royalty, velvet is a fabric that accentuates status and class to the highest degree, and is a perfect choice for a wedding jacket!
Velvets dye so well as they are actually cotton fabrics!
Cotton is piled onto a base fabric, which is then sheared or sanded, similar to how flannel is made, in order to give that beautiful feel and shine to this fabric. These jackets can be adorned with silk, satin, and grosgrain to offer a very dressy look, or simply keep it classy and wear it straight up as a blazer!
Here are some examples of velvet blazers, dressed down and dressed up!
