Description

148cm wide, beautiful quality stretch velvet dress fabric. This knitted velour features a 4-way stretch; it's soft hand and high content of elastane makes it extremely comfortable to wear. This material can easily carry you from day to night in comfort without sacrificing style.

Another name for this is panne velvet, because of its lustrous finish. There are lots on the market but this is not a cheap version. It is a medium weight jersey, good for covering lumps and bumps and has a classy sheen (not cheap looking or too shiny) thats just right.

We have this cloth available in a variety of colours so you can have a classy outfit for every occasion.

*Due to the excess dye used in this cloth we recommend washing before use

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.

I made a long evening dress with this velvet. It was really easy to sew and because it has a little stretch, I didn't need to bother with a zip; it just slips over my head. The dress drapes really nicely so am very pleased with it. The velvet isn't quite as soft as the velvet I used many years ago but it looks great and is a small price to pay for being able to stretch a little. I'm looking forward to wearing it on my next cruise!
