Stretch Velour Luxe Crushed - Blue Steel; is a sharp blue-grey colour with an eyecatching glamorous style. It is perfect for statement occasion dresses and is equally great for high fashion and glamorous attire. This versatile fabric will work whether your style is grungy, party, period or glam!
This sumptuous, highly reflective crushed velour has a stunning, super soft and malleable handle that demands to be draped, twisted, knotted and tucked. Boasting an excellent widthwise stretch with a bounce-back return, it has a good stretch to the length as well. This fabric is slinky, yet has a reassuring medium-heavy weight handle when used in good quantity, making it perfect for dramatic evening dresses.
Why not add that extra drama by making draped and knotted styles with a wrap front? However, this wonder isn't just for glamorous dresses! We're seeing a definite 90's fashion revival, where velours are fashioned into practical yet 'stand out' slip dresses.
Baby doll styles, which you can wear like tunics, are both practical and luxurious. Think simple roll neck tops and t-shirt styles - perfect for teaming with your favourite jeans. This super stretchy wonder will make easy no-zip dresses. Try skater styles, fit and flare or simple tube dresses and skirts.
Need some glamorous and comfy trousers? Make some dramatic palazzo pants from our excellent crushed velour. Keep them super simple and just put in an elasticated waist! Need a quick and simple jacket? This versatile fabric is ideal for kimono jackets, shrugs and opera coat styles to name but a few. Alternatively, create luxe loungewear- '70s style retro hoodies with contrasting chevron stripes and matching jogger pants for a serious style worthy of any fashionista!
