Velvet Underground

As your holiday invites pile up, it is crucial to thoroughly arrange a few striking wardrobe options for each occasion. Start with a dress you love—something on-trend that flatters your figure—and accessorize accordingly. Today’s Proenza Schouler Silk-Velvet Dress is a prime foundation…it is festive, sophisticated and sexy all at once.

A stunning silhouette of crushed velvet with just the right amount of satin, this dress moves me to tears. It is an exquisite portrayal of fashion’s velvet trend—which always seems to resurface at this time of year. For a seasonally stylish look, rock this luxe frock with opaque tights, lace-up booties and dramatic earrings. You can also draw up a more toned-down interpretation of velvet…think: a classic LBD with a unique velvet bag or perhaps a velvet blazer over a jumpsuit. Whichever direction you take, you will stay warm and glamorous at any soirée! xoRZ
