Dark Grey Scuba Knit Velour Top

The Dark Grey Faux Suede Velour Scuba Knit Fabric combines the structure and stability of scuba fabric with an elegant velvety faux suede finish on one side, offering a soft texture and a sophisticated look reminiscent of suede. Its dark grey colour lends elegance and understated sophistication, making it a highly versatile choice for contemporary fashion garments.

Made from 100% polyester, this fabric stands out for its durability, ease of care and lightweight stretch. It has slight stretch, greater across the width than the length, providing comfort without losing structure, ideal for garments that need to retain a beautiful shape and a neat finish.

With a width of 145 cm and a weight of 280 gsm, it offers good body for making up structured garments, whilst maintaining a pleasant flexibility and a lovely drape.

The dark grey is a neutral and timeless shade that pairs particularly well with black, unbleached ecru, beige, camel, burgundy and other shades of grey. Combined with the faux suede finish, it allows you to create elegant and contemporary garments, particularly appealing for autumn and winter collections.

Suggested uses: jackets, structured dresses, skirts, trousers, blazers, waistcoats, windcheaters, co-ordinated outfits, womenswear, menswear and accessories.

Sewing tip: use a knitting needle or stretch needle 75/11 or 80/12 and high-quality polyester thread. When cutting, lay out all the pieces with the pile running in the same direction to avoid visual differences in shade. Always iron on reverse or using a protective woollen cloth at a low temperature to preserve the velvety finish.
