I purchased the mauve color. The image used by Wayfair is darker than the actual product, which is why I've given 4 stars. The quilt is soft, and I'm keeping it because the velvet feels nice. I've paired it with another comforter set to make it work with the colors in my room. This quilt is thin, so I don't think it would've worked for me as a stand alone comforter, especially during the NYC winter.
