GBSB Ep7 Inspiration: Stitching for the Dancefloor
From liquid satin and denim to metallic jersey, sequins and velvet, discover our fabric inspiration from Sewing Bee Music Week.
This plum wool crepe has a softly textured surface with a matte finish, giving it a refined look that works well for both dressmaking and tailoring. The crepe weave adds a subtle grain and fluidity, making it feel light in movement despite its structure.
At 220gsm, it offers a balanced weight that drapes beautifully while still holding shape where needed. Made from British wool, it has a naturally breathable quality and a comfortable handle. Ideal for dresses, skirts, trousers and softer tailoring where you want movement combined with a clean finish.
