I went in a store some time ago and asked where the velvets were. The early 20s clerk thought and thought, and said she'd never heard of any of that kind, what did it look like. Another lady my age and I carefully explained that it was an expensive fabric that felt like it was made of colored fur. That rang a bell so she took us both to the velvet section...made us wonder about clerks in stores. Knowledge is power!!!!
