Here at Calico Laine we sell a fantastic range of dressmaking fabrics, and some of our most popular fabrics are our bridal fabrics. Available in a range of colours, types, and widths, there is bound to be something in our stock to suit everyone's tastes and needs.
- One of our best selling fabrics is our duchess satin - with an amazing selection of colours, this beautiful fabric has a matte finish and although it is our heaviest weight satin available, it is soft to handle and has a great body and weight. Selling at £8.99 a metre, it is 150cm wide and is perfect to use for bridal gowns, bridesmaid dresses and prom dresses.
- A similar fabric is our super soft duchess satin - available in twelve different colours, this fabric is the same width as our regular duchess satin, but it is lighter in weight and drapes wonderfully. Our super soft duchess satin is great to use for evening gowns and party frocks, and is available at £6.99 a metre.
- One of our most versatile fabrics is our satin back crepe - with a satin finish on one side and a crepe finish on the other, this fabric is fully reversible and each side compliments the other extremely well. This feature could be used for techniques such as contrasting panels on a dress, or perhaps to make two separate items of clothing to be worn together, made with opposite sides of the fabric. At 115cm wide, our satin back crepe is available at £5.99 a metre.
- Another bridal fabric that we stock is our satin back dupion - another completely reversible fabric, one side of this fabric has a satin dupion finish, and the other has a matte dupion finish. The colours in our satin back dupion range co-ordinate beautifully with the colours available in our duchess satins and chiffons, which could be used to create clothing with interesting textures and contrasting panels. Our satin back dupion is 115cm wide and is available at £6.99 a metre.
- One of our newest ranges is our Soire Satins - a medium weight satin available in several colours, this fabric has a lovely crinkled texture and hangs amazingly. It is perfect for someone who wants a dress with a difference, as the textured design of the fabric makes it stand out against our other fabrics available. Measuring 147cm in width, our soire satins are selling at £8.99 a metre.
