Types of Plain Velvet Fabric

Not all velvet cloth is the same, and FabCouture stocks several types under one roof. Crushed velvet fabric has that signature crinkled, light-catching texture that adds instant drama to any outfit. Micro velvet fabric is finer and lighter, easier to drape and stitch, and ideal for everyday festive wear. Silk velvet and viscose velvet bring a more fluid, luxurious fall, often used for premium lehengas and gowns, while our Lycra velvet blends add stretch for figure-hugging silhouettes. Whether you're after soft velvet fabric for a soft, matte look or a high-sheen finish for a statement piece, there's a variant here for it.

What Can You Make With Plain Velvet Fabric?

Plain velvet fabric is one of the most versatile fabrics for festive and winter wardrobes. Think rich lehengas, anarkalis, and gowns for weddings and celebrations, structured blazers and jackets for a designer edit, or plush blouses to pair with silk sarees. It also works beautifully for home decor — cushion covers, curtains, and upholstery — thanks to its warmth and durability. If you're looking for something with more embellishment, our embroidered velvet fabric range and printed velvet fabric collection are worth exploring alongside this plain range, and our velvet dupatta collection makes a great finishing piece.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is velvet fabric made of?

Traditional velvet is woven from silk, cotton, or a blend, but most velvet fabric sold today — including FabCouture's plain velvet range — uses polyester, viscose, or silk-blend yarns for better durability, easier care, and a more affordable price without losing that classic velvet sheen.

What's the difference between plain velvet and crushed velvet?

Plain velvet has a smooth, even pile and a uniform sheen, while crushed velvet fabric is treated to create a crinkled, textured surface that catches light differently at every angle — giving it a more dramatic, vintage look.

What is the price of velvet fabric per metre?

At FabCouture, plain velvet fabric prices start @ just ₹275/metre for micro velvet, with premium silk and viscose velvet variants ranging up to ₹760/metre depending on the finish and GSM you choose.

Which fabric feels similar to velvet?

Velour, corduroy, and chenille are the closest alternatives to velvet cloth material — each has a soft, brushed pile, though none quite match velvet's high sheen and drape.

Is velvet fabric good for everyday wear?

Lighter variants like micro velvet fabric work well for everyday festive wear, while richer silk and crush velvet suit special occasions. Velvet is also naturally warm, making it a favourite for winter outfits.
