Louisville, KY

Velvet Outlaw is a queer owned brand focused on sustainability and fringe! We upcycle clothing and rework each piece by adding applique, fringe and/or rhinestones. We are a two person team and recently expanded the Velvet Outlaw brand to include Velvet OutPaws - our pet bandana line!

Starting in a home attic in 2022 surrounded by rhinestones, vintage suits, and a record player, I set out to bring Velvet Outlaw to the Louisville, Kentucky community not knowing the growth Velvet Outlaw would have. After quickly outgrowing my home studio, I knew that it was time to begin to look for a physical store. In 2023, we moved to Mellwood Art Center, a space to truly call our first home!
