Description

This lightweight viscose and acetate lining in purple is a lovely splash of colour, particularly when tucked inside a beautifully tailored jacket or coat. Smooth, silky to the touch and with a subtle sheen, it has an elegant finish that catches the light without looking overly glossy. The combination of viscose and acetate creates a fluid, supple cloth that feels comfortable against the skin and slips easily over other layers.

At just 75gsm, this is a wonderfully lightweight lining with a soft, flowing drape, making it a lovely choice for dresses, skirts, waistcoats, blazers and tailored coats. The purple would make a striking contrast against charcoal grey, navy, black or even a rich green outer fabric. Just the thing for giving a handmade garment a little unexpected personality on the inside.

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.
