Bridal Sash

If all-velvet dresses are too hot or not your style, a velvet sash tied around a satin, lace or tulle gown is an understated and classy way to incorporate the fabric. Choose an ivory sash with sparkly detailing at the front, or for a pop of color, select a long, velvet sash in one of your wedding colors.
