Midnight Drift - Viscose Dress Fabric

Navy is the colour that goes with everything, and Midnight Drift is a rich, deep one, dark enough to look smart and soft enough not to look severe. It works as a base for a whole wardrobe, with every print in your stash and every plain colour you own.

This viscose is a medium weight, so it has a little more substance than a floaty lightweight, and it still falls in soft, graceful folds. It drapes beautifully for a flattering silhouette, and it hangs well without clinging. It’s breathable, with a silky texture, and it feels smooth against the skin.
