GBSB Ep4 Inspiration: Mexico Week
Colour, embroidery and bold details inspired our favourite fabrics, trims and patterns from episode 4 Mexico Week of the Sewing Bee.
Woven from 100% viscose, viscose morocain has a wonderfully soft handle and a fluid, floppy drape that moves beautifully with the body. Despite being a woven fabric, it has a touch of natural give which makes it comfortable to wear and easy to sew. Lightweight, breathable and full of movement, it strikes that sweet spot between structure and softness.
This is the sort of fabric that lends itself to relaxed, modern clothing. Think flowing wide-leg trousers, oversized shirts, easy-wearing shorts and softly gathered skirts. It would make a particularly lovely cropped bias-cut skirt, where the drape and movement can really shine. Comfortable, versatile and endlessly wearable, it's the kind of fabric you'll find yourself reaching for again and again.
