I have loved velvet dresses since I was very young – I always got a “Christmas dress” each year, and most of them were velvet! Something about velvet just feels so festive. So when Hill House launched a velvet Nap Dress, I was very excited. I’m rounding up that dress and some other very cute velvet options!

Emerald Nap Dress // Black Dotted // Blue Puff Sleeved Shift
Blue Swingy Mini // Red Smocked Mini // Burnt Orange Maxi
First, the dress that revitalized my love of velvet – the Nap Dress. In person, the color looks even richer and more beautiful, and I love how silky the fabric is – it’s not heavy at all. It’s taking everything in me not to buy it in burgundy, too!
Free People has some really pretty velvet mini dress options – this royal blue swingy dress with an embroidered top and flowy sleeves,and this deep red one with a smocked top and big bow that ties in the back. If you’re looking for something a bit simpler, this blue velvet shift dress is a great option that could be worn all the time.
I love the details on this black dress – the smocked top, the peplum ruffle, and the polka dots! And finally, this maxi dress version is so beautiful – the color is stunning, and I love the v-neck, too.
