Trend Alert: Velvet
Velvet ruled the fashion runway for the fall season. From dresses, to separates, to skirts and coats. These velvety outfits feature really simple lines, nothing outlandish, but with the same dramatic effect, nonetheless.
One of my favorites from the fall runway is this gorgeous and very elegant black velvet dress by Marc Jacobs and it is perfect for Holiday parties:
Marc Jacobs Asymmetrical Velvet Dress: Black velvet dress with all-over pleating.

Dry clean.
Rachel Roy also has an awesome designed velvet dress, which the designer says is best for wearing at any time and any occasion:
