Charcoal Grey – Premium Viscose Twill Fabric

The neutral that goes with everything. This premium viscose twill has a soft drape, a subtle diagonal weave and a gentle sheen that gives grey a polished, modern look. At 160gsm, it’s soft and breathable, with a weight that works through every season.

Grey suits sharp, tailored pieces as well as soft, flowing ones. Sew wide-leg culottes and trousers, a shirt or blouse, a lightweight jacket, a jumpsuit, or a dress and skirt that move beautifully. It’s smart enough for office outfits and evening wear, and it’s just as comfortable for everyday. At 150cm wide, there’s plenty of room to cut. It’s OEKO-TEX® Standard 100 certified, so you can sew with confidence.

It pairs well with pink, navy, cream and black, so it’s an easy colour to build a wardrobe around.
