Here at Calico Laine we have a fantastic selection of Zips in an array of different colours and uses. Depending on what type of dressmaking you need your Zips for, we will try and help you along with your decision!
One of the most popular choices is our selection of Dress Zips. Dress Zips are available in a vast choice of colours so you can try and get the best colour match possible to many different fabrics! Dress Zips are closed end, meaning that they done separate and can be used in conjunction with trousers, skirts, dresses and many other uses. They have matching coloured nylon teeth and come in different sizes ranging from 4" to 22". They are easily sewn into your garments and can always been cut to size if you cant find the exact length that you need!
We also have a great choice of Open Ended Zips which are perfect for jackets as they come completely apart. Open Ended Zips come in either plastic or nylon. The plastic Zips have m ore of a chunky finish to them which look great in fleeces for example, and the Nylon Open Ended Zips have finer teeth! Again, they come in a selection of different sizes too!
If you need a stronger Zip, we have a choice of Heavy Duty Metal Zips which are perfect for work overalls and also bags as they are made from nickel and will be more substantial than the others. Although there aren't as many colours available in the Heavy Duty Zips they really do suit their purpose! These zips are Open Ended too so will be great to use within leather jackets!
Concealed Zips are also an important choice within the dressmaking world. If you are creating or repairing an elegant dress or clothing, these zips are virtually invisible as you can only see the pull when sewn in! Our experienced staff will pick out the best colour match for you too!
