Properties:
Texture: This Faux Dupion Curtaining has the look of silk dupion curtaining, displaying the silken lustre and characteristic slubs present in Dupion. Therefore, it is smooth but subtly ridged due to the horizontal slubs. The reverse has a matte finish, and the ridged slubs are more prominent.
Handle: This versatile fabric is stable in both width and lengthwise, closely woven, making it strong and hardwearing.
Drape: Geisha China Blue will drape luxuriously and form neat pleats and gathers, providing excellent body, should you choose to use it for dramatic costume or dressmaking.
Garment Suggestions:
Types: Although this is a curtaining fabric, we have seen some truly unique garments made from furnishing materials such as kimonos, coats, jackets and blazer styles.
Patterns: Consider patterns such as Joti Duster Jacket, Riva Jacket Pattern or The Frame Bag by Hole House Patterns

Furnishings: Furnish your home with this elegant style; blinds, curtains, upholstery (sofa, armchair, etc), dining chairs, scatter cushions. Re-cover old chairs and other furniture for a fresh lease of life.
