LaPointe Velvet Blazer, Velvet Tops and the Feathered Velvet Short

The LaPointe velvet blazer is LaPointe Bonded Velvet Single Breasted Blazer in Black, a structured jacket in bonded velvet from the Holiday 2026 collection, and it arrives at LaPointe on Coveti with three velvet tops and a feathered velvet short. It sits in our designer blazers, and the tops in our designer tops.

A velvet blazer is the easiest way into velvet: one piece that changes jeans, satin trousers and a slip dress. Here is what LaPointe makes in velvet for Holiday 2026, how the fabrics differ and how to wear them.

The blazer

1. LaPointe Bonded Velvet Single Breasted Blazer in Black

Bonded velvet with structured shoulders, notched lapels and a single-breasted front, finished with a chest welt pocket and front flap pockets. The house says it fits true to size with a relaxed cut, so it closes over a knit. Professional dry clean only.

The velvet tops

2. LaPointe Velvet Off Shoulder Top in Deep Red

Plush velvet with a foldover neckline that sits off the shoulders, fitted through the body with long sleeves.

3. LaPointe Stretch Velvet Mock Neck Bodysuit in Mulberry

Stretch velvet, a mock neck, long sleeves and a classic panty-style bottom. The layer that goes under everything.

The velvet short

4. LaPointe Bonded Velvet Mini Short With Feathers in Black

Bonded velvet in a tailored, high-waisted mini short with an ostrich feather hem. Made to pair with the blazer.

The velvet pieces compared

Five ways to wear the velvet blazer

As a suit. Over the feathered velvet mini short with sheer black tights and a fine heel. With satin. Over LaPointe Satin Relaxed Pleated Pant in Mulberry and the mulberry velvet bodysuit, for a dinner. With sequins. Over LaPointe Mini Stretch Sequin Cape Tee in Black for a party. Over a gown. Across the shoulders of the velvet gown on the walk from the car. With denim. Over a white shirt and straight jeans for the day after.

Bonded versus stretch velvet

Bonded velvet is velvet laminated to a backing, which gives it the body to hold a lapel and a shoulder; it is what the blazer and the short are cut from. Stretch velvet has elastane in the base and moves with the body; LaPointe uses it for the bodysuit and the long sleeve gown. Plush velvet, on the off shoulder top, has a softer, deeper pile.

Caring for velvet

Hang the blazer on a padded hanger with room around it. Steam from inside to lift the pile, never iron the face, and brush lightly in the direction of the pile. The bodysuit can go in a cold machine wash according to the house; the blazer and the feathered short need professional care.
