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
This 160cm wide fabric in a ivory shade is a sumptuous blend of 65% viscose and 35% polyester, with a soft Tencel finish and mechanical stretch. The knitted pique construction imparts a textured feel with a subtle geometric pattern, enhancing breathability and bringing an element of tactile interest.
Weighing in at 260gsm, it offers a substantial feel that lends itself well to structured yet comfortable garments. Ideal for creating stylish trousers, elegant dresses, flowing skirts, and cosy loungewear, this fabric combines the durability of polyester with the luxurious drape of viscose. Its unique composition and finish promise comfort and versatility, making it a splendid choice for a variety of apparel creations.
This material has a beautifully soft silky finish, it's super comfortable to wear and would make gorgeous athleisure pieces and elasticated wide-leg trousers that are so on trend right now!
