Fabric Talk:
The bodice of this pattern requires a 2-way or 4-way medium weight knit fabric with at least 50% horizontal
stretch. Stretch velvet, scuba, cotton lycras, or brushed poly are all good choices. Heavier weight fabrics and those
fabrics with higher spandex content will work but will give a tighter fit. The skirt requires a 2-way knit fabric with
at least 30% horizontal stretch. Fabric choice will impact how your skirt looks. Light to medium weight fabrics
(brushed poly, bamboo lycra, lighter jersey) will drape and lay closer to your body. Heavier weight fabrics with
more structure (ponte, scuba, liverpool) will flare out more from your body and make the skirt appear shorter.
Any knit that meets the stretch requirement will work, but may not give the same results. Lining should have
similar stretch to main fabric.
Fortunately Sly Fox Fabric has you covered!
