To sew this dress, choose dress-weight fabrics with the following properties:

- medium weight, soft, with good drape, non-stretch or with very little stretch, opaque

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

- we recommend using the following fabrics: dress-weight viscose, silk, artificial silk, cotton, poplin

Attention! We do not recommend stretchy knit fabrics and lightweight sheer fabrics (chiffon, organza, stretch lace).
