Corduroy with Corded Washed Effect, Petrol Blue

The Petrol Blue Washed-Effect Corduroy is an elegant, rich and characterful fashion fabric, perfect for creating contemporary garments with a sophisticated and slightly retro touch. Its petrol blue shade, which is intense and very flattering, adds character without compromising on versatility.

It features a fine rib knit of approximately 2 mm, with closely spaced vertical lines that create a delicate texture and the characteristic look of cordelé corduroy. Its surface is soft, slightly velvety and with a subtle sheen, whilst the washed effect gives it a casual, slightly worn and very contemporary finish.

Its composition of 85% polyester, 12% polyamide and 3% elastane provides a pleasant handle, good drape and lightweight crosswise stretch, offering comfort and freedom of movement. Furthermore, it has a width of 150 cm, ideal for making the most of the fabric in all kinds of garment-making projects.

The petrol blue pairs particularly well with unbleached shades of beige, camel, mustard, terracotta, grey or black, allowing you to create everything from casual, urban garments to more elegant and sophisticated designs.

Ideas for use: trousers, jackets, overshirts, skirts, dresses, dungarees, jumpsuits, waistcoats and fashion accessories.Sewing tip: cut all pieces following the same direction of the nap and rib knit to avoid visual differences in shade. You can use a universal or stretch needle of 80/12 or 90/14 and iron preferably on the reverse side, without applying too much pressure to preserve the raised texture of the corduroy.
