Cherry Velvet sells Vancouver-designed and manufactured dresses and shirts with the tagline “retro class with modern sass”, which encapsulates the brand pretty perfectly. The clothes are influenced by the 1940s and 1950s and include added extra touches such as generous pockets and designs that cover your bra straps properly.
Since 2011, Cherry Velvet has been making garments locally using natural fabrics such as 100% cotton and bamboo jersey which has been knitted and dyed in a Canadian mill. The company’s founder, Diane, has over 40 years of experience fitting women and an excellent understanding of how to make clothes that well and flatter your curves.
