FABRIC INFO
FABRIC INFO

This fabric is a medium weight brocade fabric often also referred to as jacquard. It is a beautiful fabric which can be used to create lots of different garment types for a more formal garment

Whilst this fabric is not especially drapey it has enough structure and movement to hold the silhouettes of garment features nicely. It is often made from silk or mix fibres. It is a textured woven fabric with a floral or abstract pattern woven into it at construction. It works well across all our designs (trousers, coats and jackets would be on the lighter weight side) and may need lining depending on the garment type you choose – see “our recommendations” tab
