Matte Black This one will always be a favourite among dressmakers and fashionistas. With its lightly-grained crepe finish and texture, this translucent and beautifully drapey fabric is extremely elegant.

Colour:

Boasting a classic solid matte black tone. Classic for all the right reasons – it goes with everything and can be styled in a variety of ways from formal styles to smart casual and fantasy styles.

Properties:

Woven from superfine polyester crepe yarns- producing a diaphanous, light and airy fabric with a lightly textured crepe feel and delicate translucence. This fabric is stable width and lengthwise with slight bias ease. It drapes with a softly elegant drape quality.

It will form fine gathers, tucks and softly layered details and is ideal for combining with dress weight crepe de chines, satins and silks to create occasion wear that requires translucent, soft details; alongside structured areas.

Garment Suggestions:

Start with wardrobe builders, such as floaty, breathable overblouses, as well as tie bow and gipsy styles, and simple but beautiful tea dress styles with easy, elasticated waists, lined with soft touch jersey.

For something more of a statement, drapey styles with fitted silk bodices and delicately draped over layers, be sure to use a structured underdress! For something a little more adaptable think floaty maxi dresses with a 70s style and consider using soft touch silky and fine jersey fabrics for the underskirts.

Other Uses:

Don’t forget to utilise the drama of this black diaphanous beauty and create the most imaginative dance wear costume details, carnival wear and of course Halloween costumes!

Create matching ruched headbands, scarves and scrunchies for a fully coordinatedeffect!
