Description

Deep chocolate brown with a faint smoky cast, this woven cloth has a soft, velvety pile over a fine vertical rib, so it catches the light in subtle streaks as it moves. It feels plush in the hand yet drapes into smooth, fluid folds.

The blend is 70% polyester, 25% chenille and 5% spandex, giving the brushed surface plenty of practical backbone. As with any pile, cut every piece facing the same way so the colour stays even. A rich brown like this makes a welcome change from black.

What to make with it

Good for

  • Cigarette trousers
  • Tailored trousers
  • Pencil skirts
  • A-line skirts
  • Occasion-wear
  • Waistcoats
  • Blazers
  • Dresses

Trousers are the natural home for this cloth. The Assembly Line Regular Fit Trousers make the most of that fluid drape and fine rib, giving you a relaxed straight leg that looks polished but feels cosy. For something shorter, the Tessuti Bailee Shorts in velvety brown are a smart autumn option worn with opaque tights.

You could also make a matching jacket. The Assembly Line Blazer would turn a pair of trousers into a soft, tonal suit. Keep the details simple and let the gentle sheen of the pile do the work.

Care & washing

Allow 2-10% shrinkage to be on the safe side. Wash the fabric before making up, in the same way you'll wash the finished make, drying methods included, so it settles once rather than after it's sewn.

Test a sample area first to find the most suitable way to wash it. We can't accept liability for fabrics washed or treated incorrectly.
