Fabric and notions:
This pattern has been designed for light to medium-weight woven fabric with little to no stretch. We recommend something with a nice structure and nothing too light. You want it to have a little bit of weight to support the shape of the dress. Crisp cottons of a shirting weight, cotton twill, light-weight denim and chambray, linen and linen blends, Tencel, and suitings are all perfect for this dress.
Fabric used in the photos:
- Both fabrics used in the photos are denims of approximately 10-12oz.
