The Sewing Bee Effect
The Sewing Bee returns on 14th July 2026. Discover why the show inspires thousands of sewists every year and the fabrics we expect to see more of.
A versatile dark navy suiting fabric with a softly brushed handle and an attractive linen-look texture. Woven from polyester, it has a natural appearance that gives garments a relaxed, contemporary feel while maintaining a smart, tailored finish suitable for both casual and formal wardrobes.
Unlike your traditional linen behaviour, this fabric drapes beautifully and resists creasing exceptionally well, making it ideal for garments that need to look polished throughout the day. At approximately 225gsm, it is a useful weight for blazers, trousers, lightweight jackets, overshirts and smart separates, offering comfort, movement and easy care in equal measure.
