FABRIC INFO
FABRIC INFO
This fabric is a light weight crepe satin fabric. It is a beautiful drapey fabric which can be used to create lots of different garment types for a more formal garment.
This fabric is a soft crepe satin fabric with a light weight drape that has little structure and has lots of flow and movement to it. It has a structure that will cause the fabric to drape around the body. It has a sheen to the fabric which is perfect for a garment for a special occasion. It works well across most our designs with a lining but would work especially well with our skirt and dress garments due to it’s beautiful sheen and more delicate nature – see “our recommendations” tab
