    Product Details

    A beautifully soft and high quality black stretch viscose jersey, making this a reliable go-to for a wide range of dressmaking patterns. Viscose jersey is loved for its smooth, silky texture and breathable feel, making it an excellant choice for dressmaking. Its lightweight drapey nature and gentle stretch allows it to flow beautifully, creating elegant movement in garments. Ideal for creating flowing tops, dresses, skirts, trousers and stylish layering pieces.

    At 240gsm, this is a mid-to-heavy weight viscose jersey. That gives it more body than a light jersey, so it hangs well, holds its shape and skims the body neatly. The fabric moves gracefully, deliverying both comfort and sophistcation, whether your sewing everyday wear or something a little more refined. With its versatile and easy-to-work-with qualities, and flattering fit, viscose jersey fabric is a fantastic option for dressmakers looking to create refined, comfortable pieces.
