Meaning

noun a fabric with a nap that is longer and softer than velvet

adjective characterized by extravagance and profusion

originFrom French peluche (“fluff, plush”). The fact that historically (in past centuries) plush upholstery was so expensive as to be socially exclusive undoubtedly connects the senses of "luxurious" and "soft".
