Crushed Velvet Fabric

Crushed velvet is known for its luxurious, soft texture and elegant drape, making it a favourite for both modern interiors and statement garments. Its distinctive crushed effect gives the fabric depth and movement, catching the light beautifully in any setting. 

Whether you’re upholstering furniture, creating event backdrops or designing fashion pieces, crushed velvet offers a premium finish with long‑lasting performance.

What is Crushed Velvet?

Crushed velvet is a type of velvet fabric characterised by its soft pile that has been intentionally twisted or pressed in different directions. This process creates its signature shimmering surface and textured appearance.

  • Key qualities of crushed velvet include:
  • A rich, reflective sheen that enhances colour vibrancy
  • A smooth, plush pile that feels soft and luxurious
  • Excellent durability, making it suitable for upholstery and cushions
  • A natural, elegant drape ideal for curtains, stage dressing and event styling
