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

- medium weight, easily pressed and steamed, soft, non-stretch or with very little stretch, opaque

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

- the following fabrics are recommended: dress-weight viscose, sateen, poplin, cotton shirting

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

The dress in the photo is made of textured cotton. The fabric is medium weight, soft, structured, and has very little stretch.

The fiber content is 100% cotton.

When choosing your fabric, make sure its wrong and right sides are practically the same colour since both of them will be seen because of the center flounce fluttering.
