To sew this dress, choose medium-weight, soft, non-stretch or low-stretch, opaque dress-weight fabrics made of natural, artificial, synthetic fibers, or blends.
The following fabrics are recommended: satin, dress-weight viscose, modal, natural or artificial silk.
Fabrics with a blended fiber content are recommended, as they are less prone to wrinkling, generally more resistant to wear and tear, and more durable.
Attention! We do not recommend stretchy knit fabrics.
The dress in the photo is made of lightweight satin. The fabric is medium weight, soft, and non-stretch.
The fiber content is 55% polyester and 45% rayon. The fabric weight is 150 g/m².
