velÂ·vet. n. 1. A soft fabric having a smooth, dense pile and a plain underside. 2. a. Something suggesting the smooth surface of velvet.
Crushed velvet is produced by twisting the fabric whilst it is wet. Different designs in the fabric can be created by weaving in multiple threads of different colours. Velvet is then usually brushed while it is still moist so that it sets with a grain. This is what produces its characteristic feel.
