Is it making a come back?

When did it go away?  I see a lot of faux suede every fall season.

I bought a pair of gorgeous Joan Rivers faux suede slim ankle pants last year.  Received a lot of compliments.

I see HSN's TS is IMAN's faux suede jacket.  Not my style; I'll pass on that.

Faux suede IMO never left, but it has improved greatly. Just like faux leather. I love wearing it and picked up 2 IM faux suede skirts on a clearance sale price yesterday for $25ea, one in black and the other dark navy. I would not buy a real suede navy skirt and would have just stuck to black, but being faux and for the price, I could not resist.  I too have some faux suede riding boots by Marc Fisher and IM, and have worn them for years.

@Caaareful Shopper if I still worked, I probably would have been interested in the Iman TS, but I don't, so I'm not.  I recorded last night's shows so am going to fast forward through those in a bit.

I wear what I like and I just purchased a faux suede dress and I look forward to wearing it.

Faux suede has been alive and well for a long time, as the process evolved over the years the quality has gotten extremely good.

I brought faux suede pants from Colleen and Linea pants and jackets different colors. I still have my suede items from years ago but hardly wear them.

I have a few faux suede and real, but prefer smooth.

It's not a trend but rather a common perennial fall and winter fabric.

According to trend reports, the big trend this fall and winter is for liquid like smooth leather jackets and other pieces. That being said, I think suede is a classic in cold weather. I had a suede jacket and skirt many years ago. I wouldn't mind having something in suede again. 

Enjoy the Weekend!

Seems like it's back this year.  Not that it every went totally away but I'm seeing it everywhere at all price points.  I bought a faux suede fringe jacket from Shophq last fall.  It's outerwear, not a blazer.  It looks exactly like real suede.  I think that's all the faux suede I need.
