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.
Deep, solid black with real presence, this 12.2oz denim is designed for garments that need structure and durability without feeling rigid. The dense twill weave gives it a clean, sharp finish, making it ideal for smarter denim pieces as well as hard-wearing everyday styles.
Woven 160cm wide from 97% cotton and 3% elastane, it offers approximately 5% stretch across the weft for comfort and movement while maintaining a firm silhouette. At around 413gsm, it sits in the heavyweight category, giving jeans, jackets and dungarees the body and longevity you’d expect from a proper jean fabric.
The black tone is rich and even, offering a more polished alternative to indigo while still retaining classic denim character.
