The Velvet Suit & Sport Jackets Are Making Their Way Into More Professional Men's Wardrobes
FASHION WEEK TREND QUICKLY BEING EMBRACED BY MORE TRADITIONAL CONSUMERS
NEW YORK, March 11, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- In more than 40 years serving New York entertainers, politicians, business leaders and sports celebrities, Mohan's Custom Tailors has never seen as quick a jump from Fashion Week runway to men's closets as they have this season with the spike in sales of velvet suits and sport jackets.
According to the company, men are inserting a velvet option into their wardrobes in a similar fashion to their fashion accents like bolder jacket linings and highlighted buttonholes.
"Velvet suits are the key statement piece for this year's chilly weather. It is perfect as an accent piece for most men's wardrobes that are usually a sea of traditional wools. It is no longer solely considered for black-tie affairs as the plush, tufted fabric is proving more versatile and stylish," said Mohan's Founder and Owner Mohan Ramchandani.
"Soon after velvet suits were being modeled in multiple Fashion Week shows, we saw many of our more conservative clients, those in accounting and law, coming in and asking about the fabric. We are designing a number of velvet suits in black, navy blue, dark purple, burgundy, hunter green and even royal blue."
Another reason for the rise in popularity, said the company is that velvet jackets also look great with jeans, tees in addition to work wear. They encourage men to keep the rest of their outfit understated allowing the velvet piece to standout. Velvet is most complimented when paired with pieces of different textiles, including solid ones like denim or tweed, softer ones like silk they added.
