We founded Velvet Coat in downtown Iowa City in 2000.  In 2007, we opened our sister store in Des Moines' East Village.  Our commitment is to provide the modern woman with fashionable clothing, footwear, and accessories that are wearable, beautifully designed, and luxurious in quality.
 
It's our pleasure to bring you the best of the best, from our tried-and-true favorites: Pollini, Diane Von Furstenberg, Christopher Fischer, Ports 1961, Cinzia Rocca, Tory Burch, Nougat, Mulberry, Streets Ahead, Tusk, Found, MaxMara, Three Dots, Cole Haan, Citizens of Humanity denim and apparel, QI Cashmere - to our exciting new lines: Majestic, Milly, Vince, Audrey Talbott, T-Bags... the list goes on. 
 
In addition to apparel and accessories, we offer Kai and Tocca - two beautiful lines of perfumes, oils, soaps, and lotions.  We also carry a variety of intimates, underpinnings, and everything in-between - so you never have to go without.  Choose from our rainbow of Hanky Panky lacy thongs, Spanx hosiery and slips, Only Hearts camis, and Bordeaux layering pieces.   
 
We look forward to seeing you in the store!
