Properties

Precious Rubellite is a heavyweight bridal/occasion wear satin fabric that features a light texture within its lustrous sateen sheen on both sides. Clever weaving techniques produce heavyweight malleable, yet dense, extremely stable and low slip. The high concentration of fine, predominantly mercerised cotton, fibres used to create this stunner is what gives such a high GSM. This fabric may be man-made but it has the look and feel of luminous silk.

The dense quality allows for structured creations with fit and flare details, think classic '50s style fit and flare, peplums or contemporary boxy shoulders, '50s style skirts will form undulating folds with unrivalled quality when constructed in this jewel of fabric.

Garment Suggestions:

Precious Rubellite is, of course, the perfect fabric for semi-structured bridal wear, use this fabric to create fitted corset-style bodices and '60s-style slim silhouettes. Blazer and trouser/skirt ensembles, mother-of-the-bride outfits and so much more. Create uber-dramatic creations worthy of red-carpet events- look to any of the recent awards ceremonies for inspiration.

For Max Luxe style ideas look to designers like Victoria Beckham and Karen Millen and create your own version of a luxury trench coat. Wear this luxurious fabric creation with your jeans to add a touch of luxury and a pop of colour to every day and wear it with an evening dress for classic drama.
