Inside Velvet Atelier.

Velvet Atelier combines broad analytic folds with a Charlie cloth distribution and visibility approximation. Directional short pile darkens the fabric body and catches soft grazing light. Surface-anchored fiber detail is filtered at distance, with independent pile direction, contrast and fiber scale controls.

This is a fabric shading model, not a cloth solver or individual-fiber simulation. No garment geometry or fabric measurements are loaded.

1.835 ms GPU timestamp median; p95 3.539 ms. 1440x900 @ dpr 1.5; Metal driver on macOS Version 26.6.2 (Build 25G83); measured 2026-09-06. This is a recorded headless sample, not a browser FPS or mobile-performance guarantee.

Pile direction

Orientation of the short velvet fibers; does not rotate the folds.

Pile contrast

Darkens light absorbed between fibers and strengthens the soft grazing sheen.

Fiber scale

Scale of the filtered, surface-anchored pile texture.

Fold scale

Density of the folds; higher values make them smaller and more numerous.

Color Looks preserve these settings. Open the editor for all 19 controls.

Made for a real interface.

Give an interiors or fashion collection an intimate opening. Set a generous serif heading on the quiet side of the folds and use the chosen accent sparingly.
