The good: These pillow covers are absolutely beautiful! The velvet is lush and I love the color and texture. The look is perfect for my living room. The bad: the pillow inserts are pathetic. They’re crinkly and flat, they don’t fill out the pillowcases. I’ve owned them for a few days and they look like they’ve been sat on for years. I expected much better the price. I truly love the pillow cases, and they aren’t returnable , so I’m just going to replace these sad pillow inserts with new ones.
