Introduction:

'90s fashions are certainly having a revival and this fun vertically striped, textured poly crepe fits the bill perfectly.

Colour:

A palette of spicy, hot summer sun-infused tones abound in this excellent dressmaking fabric, turmeric-gold, hot paprika, saffron orange, black pepper and  Himalayan pink salt hues are set alongside fresh natural white for the perfect combination. 

Properties:

Spice Market Stripe boasts a wonderfully textured finish that's almost blister-like. This pleasing textured finish gives the fabric slight ease (length and width-wise). A beautifully fluid drape quality and resistance to creases make this fabric perfect for a multitude of loose and softly flowing styles.

Garment Suggestions:

Recreate all your favourite '90s styles, such as simple slip dresses, halter-neck dresses, asymmetrical 1-shoulder dresses (and tops), strappy sun dresses such as Sew Different Fleetwood Frock or Reynolds Top and Dress by Helen's Closet. 

Dresses and tops with soft gathers such as The Megan Nielsen Patterns - Protea Capsule Wardrobe. Create simple summer dresses with elasticated shirred bodices and fun cropped/ Gypsy tops with puffed sleeves for a bohemian style.

Other Uses:

For simpler, chic styles, create long-line sleeveless shirts with deep side vents - wear over a simple white vest top and matching wide-legged easy make elasticated palazzo pants. Shorten for the smartest shorts and continue this theme- into playsuits and stylish jumpsuits.

There are so many other styles perfect for this easy-to-wear and easy-to-care-for fabric.
