Lumière Ivory Wool Tweed with Gold Lurex

The Lana Lumière Ivory Tweed fabric is an elegant and luminous fabric that combines delicate shades of white and unbleached ecru with fine yarns of gold Lurex. Its characteristic tweed structure forms a subtle pattern of checks and raised textures, creating a richly textured surface in which the small golden sparkles add light and sophistication without being over the top.

Its composition of 65% wool, 30% polyester and 5% Lurex combines the characteristic look and warmth of wool with the durability of polyester and the elegant shiny effect of the metallic thread. It has a width of 150 cm, making it highly versatile for various fashion and garment-making projects.

The Lumière Ivory design stands out for its light, neutral colour palette, where different shades of white and unbleached ecru intertwine with the gold Lurex yarns. The result is a refined, delicate tweed that is easy to coordinate, particularly suited to elegant garments, co-ordinated outfits and Chanel-inspired designs. Its combination of texture and sheen also makes it an excellent choice for special occasion garments and formal looks.

Ideas for use: Chanel-style jackets, blazers, jacket-and-skirt ensembles, waistcoats, skirts, dresses, lightweight coats and fashion accessories.

Sewing tip: due to the structure of the tweed, it is advisable to overcast or neaten the edges after cutting to prevent fraying. For jackets and structured garments, adding a lining fabric will help achieve a cleaner, more professional finish. When ironing, test on a remnant first, use a protective cloth and avoid high temperatures to preserve both the wool and the gold Lurex yarn.
