Velvet of course is a material, not a style. But it is a material that was used for a range of juvenile suit styles. Velvet a popular material for youngrr boy's suits. We see mostly youngr boys wearing these velvet suit styles. We note some Fauntleroy suits, done with cut-away jackets in the late -19th century. We also see some 20th century velvet suits, inclusing early-20th century that still had some Fauntleroy touches. These suits included both various jacket styles as well as what look like blouse suits. We only have a few examples at this time.
