Description

Deep wine with a hint of plum, this soft chenille has a velvety pile and a fine streaky texture that catches the light as it moves. It has a smooth, plush handle and falls into soft, rounded folds with enough body to hold a tailored line.

The blend of polyester, chenille and a touch of spandex gives it the look of velvet without the formality, and the colour shifts from rich claret to dusky plum depending on the light. Smart enough for evening, comfortable enough for every day.

What to make with it

Good for

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

Trousers are the obvious place to start. The Assembly Line Regular Fit Trousers would look wonderfully polished in this, and the soft body of the cloth keeps a clean leg line without feeling stiff. Pair them with a matching Assembly Line Blazer for a velvety suit that feels far more relaxed than it looks, or cut a pair of Tessuti Bailee Shorts to wear with tights through autumn and winter.

It would also suit fitted skirts, simple shift dresses and waistcoats. Because of the pile, cut every piece facing the same way so the colour reads evenly across the finished garment.

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.
