GBSB Ep5 Inspiration: Working Out Athleisure
From activewear and French terry to technical fabrics and appliqué, we're taking inspiration from Sports Week on The Great British Sewing Bee
A beautifully soft 100% cotton shirting with a small woven check in muted shades of sage and soft olive green, cream and a subtle golden mustard overcheck. There is a slight twill character visible through the weave which gives the check a little more depth than a straightforward flat shirting.
The handle is particularly nice. It isn't brushed, but the surface has a remarkably soft, almost gently worn in feel. Lightweight at approximately 100gsm, with an easy drape while still retaining the crispness you'd expect from cotton, it would be lovely for shirts, blouses, relaxed dresses, pyjamas and lightweight separates.
