Width:
1.47m
Weight:
89gsm
Stretch:
Nil, very slight lengthwise give
Note #1:
Last 1.2m of 3.75m piece has a few minor print defects within 25cm of one corner, and a thin mark within 7cm of the selvedge, ~95cm from the end (this may wash out). The fabric can still be used, but in a hidden area.
Note #2 (2.9m):
The 2.9m option is discounted as both selvedges have occasional print defects, within 4cm and 7cm of the two selvedges respectively. One corner has a couple tiny holes to avoid. Please use with care.
Adding to cart… The item has been added

Viscose/ polyamide fabric with a stylised botanical print in leaf green and light yellow cream.  This fabric has a particularly fine texture, with a slight sheen in some lights.  It's extremely soft, smooth, and somewhat cool to the touch.  There is a hint of crinkling in the weft which may be more obvious after washing.  It is light and airy against the skin, with a fluid handle, very good drape, and moderate body.  The light-coloured parts are somewhat translucent.  Suitable for blouses, airy shirts, lined dresses and skirts, even faux silk scarves.  Slightly wrinkle resistant.  Swatches are available - please leave a note at check-out if you would like one.

General info:
All fabrics in this update are woven of plant-based fibres in one direction, and polyamide/ nylon in the other direction (typically the warp or lengthwise yarns).  Polyamide adds strength, body, and stability, without adding too much weight.  The plant-based fibres take colour well and keep the fabric feeling softer against the skin.  One thing I like about this type of fabric is that it drapes well yet tends to skim the body, rather than cling to it.
