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.
If you love a little sparkle without the drama, this lurex viscose jersey strikes the perfect balance. The silvery-steel grey shade is woven with fine metallic lurex threads that catch the light beautifully, creating a subtle shimmer rather than an overpowering glitter. Soft, fluid and comfortable to wear, it has an elegant drape that makes it equally suited to everyday pieces and occasion dressing. It lies flat, sews beautifully and behaves well (certainly better than we do).
At 160cm wide, this knitted fabric is made from 82% viscose and 18% lurex with a substantial 320gsm weight. The glittering jersey offers stretch providing excellent comfort while maintaining its shape. Ideal for dresses, tops, skirts, jumpsuits, statement T shirts and festive separates, it's a sophisticated choice whenever you want a touch of understated glamour.
