The Best Velvet Couches Will Add That "Wow" Factor to Any Room—Here Are 14 of Our Favorites

If your ideal sofa is a Bridgerton-esque fainting couch, this pied-à-terre style is perfect for you. The seat is made from a fluffed green velvet, while the backrest resembles a botanical tapestry. Spindle-shaped maple wood legs and a curved silhouette create a major statement piece for the dressiest rooms in your home.

"This sofa exceeded my expectations," wrote one five-star reviewer. "We wanted a sofa with a broad, long and firm seat for napping, yet casually elegant for the room. I looked for a long time and decided to go with this statement piece as something a little different. The Pied-a-Terre adds a fresh, airy look and gets compliments immediately as a standout, stunning piece. Seems durable after two years; no problems whatsoever."

The martini olive green color is taking home decor by storm, and this sofa is no exception. It looks fresh out of the '70s with modern, supportive construction. The cushy velvet upholstery adds gold undertones to the colorway, while the seats are soft to the touch and provide enough support that you won't sink into them. The deep seats are designed for lounging for long periods, so this is an extra comfy way to join in on the color trend.

Even though we are die-hard Amazon fans, we're somehow always a bit shocked when we find stunning furniture there. Case in point: this curved, low-slung velvet sofa that many reviewers say looks more expensive IRL than it costs. It skips the frills and tufting for a minimalist silhouette that blends into any living room decor, and comes in several hues, including a sienna shade.

"This sofa is stunning and everything that I wanted it to be! I'm so glad that it came back in restock," one reviewer wrote. "The velvet feels like soft butter, the color in person is a burnt sienna/terracotta color, and it is huge! Firm but very comfortable at the same. I love the retro shape of the sofa and I think it can comfortably fit two to three adults. I'm obsessed with this sofa and so glad it's mine."

How sweet is this loveseat? If you're trying to decorate a small space, you can't go wrong with a petite sofa that hasn't lost any popularity since it arrived on the design scene in the late 19th century. This one, however, was created with a more modern outlook than its centuries-old counterparts. For instance, the back features a stylish channel design that brings it into the present. What's more, the super-sturdy iron legs are molded into a hairpin shape, giving the sofa's silhouette a sleeker look.

Slightly more expensive than the last few, this Frontgate find is well worth the steep price. For starters, you can order it in more than 100 color-fabric combinations. After you make your selection, it's handcrafted in the U.S. using feather- and down-wrapped cushions, eight-way hand-tied springs, and a hardwood frame. If you go the velvet route, know this: High-quality velvet naturally ages over time, which can result in light marks or "bruising" that add to its character and sheen—think of it like a patina.

The Rivington sofa, a low-profile velvet couch on wheels created by British interior designer Ginny Macdonald, comes in eight colors, but we're partial to goldenrod. After all, there's something so comforting about a sunny-hued sofa that makes us want to trade in our own. It also comes in three sizes, maxing out at 96 inches wide, so if you have a big family and like squeezing together on the couch, we think we've found the one for you.

Burrow is a great place to score fuss-free furniture. It's high-quality, pared-back seating that makes a case for simplicity. Case in point: the Nomad velvet sofa, which comes in six colors and six leg finishes. If you want to get a little fancy, throw in the matching bolster pillows for $100 or a sleep kit for $349. Otherwise, enjoy this marvelous sofa exactly as it comes (with a built-in USB charger).

Incredibly comfortable, makes a statement, and is available in various colors? Sold. All of that aside, we're into this velvet sofa because it kind of looks like the adult version of a 1970s bean bag chair, but elevated. In fact, it kind of is: It's filled with lightweight polystyrene beads, but it won't sink or sop to one side when you take a seat. Instead, it will stay put and give you that coveted sink-in coziness.

We're suckers for jewel tones, which is why we're obsessed with this three-seater sofa. It comes in this gorgeous shade of burgundy, a muted emerald, and a rich navy (among other shades), so take your pick. The best part, however, is that it arrives fully assembled, so all you have to do is make space for it, and you're good to go. Of course, the removable and reversible seat cushions don't hurt either!

You can't go wrong with Sabai's eco-friendly sofas. The velvet, for instance, is recycled, and the legs are made from domestically-sourced maple. Get it in five stylish colors, including the bright mustard pictured here. Though it requires some assembly, it takes about 15 minutes. Associate Shopping Editor Jessica Cherner can attest to that. "I am not a particularly handy person, but even I was able to assemble this without breaking a sweat," she says.

The simple, clean lines on Maiden Home's contemporary sofas are a bold touch of luxury worth investing in for your space. Normally, our go-to piece is the bouclé-covered Chelsea, but we'll make an exception for the Varick, which features oversized proportions and a much-welcomed curvature that makes lounging even easier. You can also fully customize it to fit your space.

Another low-profile velvet couch we can't get enough of? The West Elm Parlor, which, as its name indicates, would work best in a parlor, which is a reception room that's often a bit smaller than a living room, hence the low-slung shape. That said, you can absolutely use it in a living room or bedroom. First, choose between the two available sizes, then pick your color. No need to worry about the rest because it comes with white-glove delivery.
