Green Wave Foil Marble Viscose Jersey Fabric – Stretch Knit Dressmaking Material

Malachite Gold has emerald, jade and deep aubergine swirling together like cut stone, with silver-grey ribbons between them and fine veins of gold foil catching the light. It’s rich and dramatic, and the foil is delicate, so it adds shimmer without looking showy. Dress it up for the evening or wear it as a bold casual piece.

At 220gsm this is a mid-weight viscose jersey. It’s soft, with a stretch that gives ease of movement and a comfortable fit, and it keeps its shape well. Viscose is breathable, with a silky texture and a beautiful drape, it feels smooth against the skin and moves softly with you.

What to make

• Dresses: wrap dresses, T-shirt dresses and fitted party dresses
• Tops and tunics: stylish tees, cowl necks and long-sleeve tops
• Bottoms: leggings, shorts and relaxed lounge pants
• Loungewear: glamorous matching sets

For winter events, too

Emerald and gold is a classic party combination. Wear it with tights and a tailored jacket or a cosy cardigan for Christmas and New Year.
