What exactly is velvet?
Velvet, known in English as velvet, is a fabric in which small loops are woven into short fluffy piles, creating a shiny effect. This luxurious fabric originates from Asia and became popular in Europe around 1600. In the past, velvet was really a material for the rich and although velvet is now accessible to everyone, the fabric still has the same luxurious look.
