Plain Stretch Gabardine, Lilac

The plain lilac stretch gabardine is a high-quality flat weave fabric that combines an elegant drape, lightweight stretch and a soft, sophisticated colour. Its lilac shade lends delicacy, freshness and a romantic touch, making it a highly sought-after choice in both flamenco fashion and contemporary women’s wear.

Made from 97% polyester and 3% spandex, it offers soft stretch that enhances comfort and allows the garment to move with the body, whilst maintaining excellent stability and durability.

Its lightweight, slightly textured surface and satin-like finish provide a refined look, with the diagonal weaves characteristic of gabardine appearing very subtly. Thanks to its fluidity and balanced body, it allows garments to be made with natural and elegant drape.

The lilac colour pairs perfectly with floral prints, polka dots and plain fabrics in shades of white, bougainvillea, mauve, aqua green or beige, offering endless possibilities for creating designs full of personality and harmony.

Suggested uses: flamenco dresses, skirts, trousers, dance outfits, guest dresses, lightweight jackets and women’s fashion.

Sewing tip: use a universal or stretch needle 80/12 or 90/14 and high-quality polyester thread. For a professional finish, iron on a low to medium heat setting on the reverse side of the fabric.
