What is the difference between velvet and velour?
Velvet and velour are very similar, but the main difference is how they are made. Velvet is a woven fabric with a dense pile, making it more structured and ideal for tailoring. Velour is a knitted fabric, which gives it a natural stretch. This makes velour the better choice for garments that need to move with the body, such as leggings, hoodies, and dancewear.
