Skims instead of clinging
I usually avoid velvet because it can show every bump, but this hangs well on me. There's enough shape that I don't feel swallowed by it.

Comfortable against bare skin, which isn't always true with velvet tops.

Pretty without being overly sweet, which is exactly my taste.
This looked like the sort of shirt I'd admire but hardly wear. Turns out the velvet is soft enough that I reach for it just as often as my plainer tops. It doesn't cling around my stomach, and the butterflies make even a simple outfit feel finished.
