Coat of Many Colours

Regular price £26.00 per metre

Colourful deadstock wool and cotton blend tweed with an open weave and soft texture.


Description

A joyful explosion of colour, this beautifully soft open-weave tweed combines pink, cream, lilac and turquoise yarns to create a wonderfully textured and characterful cloth.

Made for a prestigious French fashion house, this fabric feels surprisingly lightweight despite its lofty appearance. The loose weave gives it softness, movement and a slightly sheer quality, making it ideal for relaxed layering pieces rather than heavily structured tailoring.

While it is a little more challenging to sew than a tightly woven fabric, the results are worth the effort. Think relaxed coatigans, unstructured jackets, statement overshirts, longline cover-ups and easy layering pieces that can be thrown on over almost anything. Its lightness means it can even be tied around the waist without feeling bulky.

For best results, consider lining key areas or using seam finishes that help stabilise the open weave.
