Velvet


Velvet was a soft and plush fabric that was a symbol of wealth and privilege. Garments made of embroidered velvet and silk were a common sight at the balls and receptions held in the Imperial Palace of Coruscant.

Both Finis Valorum and Sheev Palpatine sometimes wore velvet overcloaks during their respective terms as Supreme Chancellor of the Galactic Republic. During her pregnancy, senator Padmé Amidala sometimes wore a green hooded velvet dress displaying patterns of House Bonteri, with a sash made from Onderon silk, wrapped around her midsection.

Queen Breha Organa of Alderaan owned a dress made from russet silk and blue velvet which she wore when greeting her daughter, Leia, at the Aldera Spaceport, following a mercy mission to the planet Wobani where Leia brought back a hundred refugees.

During his time as senator of Riosa in the New Republic's Galactic Senate, Ransolm Casterfo often wore velvet cloaks and robes.
