To sew this blazer, choose suiting fabrics with the following properties: 

- medium weight, structured, non-stretch or low-stretch

- the fiber content can include natural fibers (wool), artificial fibers (viscose), blends (wool + silk, wool + polyester, etc.), and synthetics (polyester)

- the following fabrics are recommended: crepe suiting, wool suiting.

Attention! We do not recommend stretchy, soft, lightweight (dress-weight wool), and loosely woven suiting fabrics.

For the lining, choose lining fabrics made of artificial fibers (viscose), blends (viscose + elastane, viscose + polyester), or synthetics (polyester, polyester + elastane).
