Glencoe double-faced fabric wool tweed in Red and Turquoise

The Glencoe Double-Faced Wool Tweed is a spectacular winter fabric that combines design, texture and colour in a particularly original creation. It features a striking multicoloured checked pattern in shades of red, turquoise, black and warm tones, an intense and sophisticated combination ideal for creating warm garments with great personality.

With a width of 150 cm and a composition of 50% wool and 50% polyester, it combines the warmth and characteristic look of wool with the durability, stability and practicality provided by polyester, resulting in an original and versatile winter fabric.

Its main appeal lies in its double-faced fabric with two different finishes: one side features the characteristic look of tweed, whilst the other offers a striking long pile finish that retains the same checks and provides volume, warmth and a particularly attractive texture.

The pile side also features a subtle shiny effect that delicately catches the light and enhances the richness of the colours without being overpowering. This combination allows either side to take centre stage and multiplies the creative possibilities in garment design.

Thanks to its nature as a double-faced tweed fabric, it is particularly well-suited for making up coats, jackets, capes, waistcoats and winter garments, playing on the contrast between the two surfaces. The pile side can be used to highlight collars, lapels, cuffs, pockets and facing details, creating original finishes without the need to add another fabric.

Ideas for use: coats, jackets, capes, waistcoats, overshirts, winter garments, bags, hats and fashion accessories.

Sewing tip: before cutting, decide which side will be the main side and always follow the direction of the pile on all pieces. When working with the long pile side, it is advisable to cut the base of the fabric carefully to avoid unnecessarily severing the fibres. To achieve a professional finish, allow for extra fabric to match the check pattern in the most visible areas.
