Description

This dark grey crepe is one of those fabrics that quietly earns its place in a wardrobe. Smart enough for workwear, understated enough for everyday wear and elegant enough for special occasions, this Italian deadstock cloth has a timeless quality that never feels dated. The crepe texture softens the colour beautifully, giving it more depth than a plain woven fabric.

At 280gsm, this polyester, viscose and elastane blend has a lovely balance of drape and structure. It hangs beautifully through dresses and skirts whilst retaining enough body for tailored trousers, jumpsuits and lightweight jackets. Easy to sew and comfortable to wear, it's a fabric you'll reach for time and again.

Care & washing

Allow 2-10% shrinkage to be on the safe side. Wash the fabric before making up, in the same way you'll wash the finished make, drying methods included, so it settles once rather than after it's sewn.

Test a sample area first to find the most suitable way to wash it. We can't accept liability for fabrics washed or treated incorrectly.
