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.
Woven in Italy from an exceptional blend of wool, angora and cashmere, this stone-grey suiting has the sort of softness that makes you stop and run your hand across it twice. The angora and cashmere add a gentle halo and luxurious handle, whilst the wool provides structure and durability. A touch of elastane gives comfort without affecting the elegant drape.
The colour sits somewhere between soft stone, pale taupe and warm grey, making it incredibly versatile and easy to wear. Lightweight enough for year-round tailoring, yet luxurious enough for special occasion pieces, this is a fabric that deserves careful sewing.
Ideal for softly tailored jackets, wide-leg trousers, waistcoats, skirts and elegant dresses. The smooth finish and refined drape would also lend themselves beautifully to modern relaxed tailoring.
This is the sort of fabric that would typically be found in premium designer collections, where quality of fibre and finish take precedence over trends.
