Yes, you can wash 100 percent cotton velvet drapes, but it's important to check the care label first. Most cotton velvet can be machine washed on a gentle cycle using cold water, but hand washing or dry cleaning is often recommended to preserve the fabric's texture and appearance. If machine washing, use a mild detergent and avoid harsh chemicals. After washing, hang the drapes to air dry instead of using a dryer to prevent damage.
