Here at Calico Laine we offer a fantastic range of Bridal Fabrics ideal for constructing your perfect bridal gown. Our selection of excellent quality Bridal Fabrics includes materials such as satin, crepe and chiffon which are not only ideal for the bridal gown itself but can also be utilised for dressing your maids. Here are details of just a few of our most popular fabrics during wedding season:
Duchess Satin - one of most popular fabrics all year round, duchess satin is a classic Bridal Fabric featuring a beautiful matte surface which looks incredible when made up into elegant and feminine designs. Duchess satin is available in a wide variety of colour options including the classic bridal hues of white and ivory alongside other more adventurous shades such as yellow and cerise which are often selected for dressing the brides maids. The beauty of choosing duchess satin for your bridesmaids is that this fabric also looks incredible when fashioned into accessories for your groomsmen such as handkerchiefs and cravats which means you can be sure that your bridal party will be perfectly coordinated.

Lace - this stunning range of Bridal Fabrics have experienced a huge resurgence in popularity over the last few years. Popular for it's particularly feminine appearance, lace is a particularly popular choice for beach weddings. Our heavy corded lace is perhaps the most popular of our lace Bridal Fabrics and works wonderfully when paired alongside other materials including satin to create a delicate and feminine gown. Lace does not have to feature as the main fabric but can be used for adding a point of interest to your gown such as an ornate neckline or hem.
Satin Back Crepe - slightly lighter in weight than many of our other satin Bridal Fabrics, satin back crepe is renowned for its stunning drape and flow. This reversible fabric can be used on either the matte or the shiny side dependent upon your preference and can be paired with other sheer fabrics such as chiffon or organza.
