Viscose fabrics are perfect for dresses and tops that need a light drape, movement, breathability and softness against the skin.
Viscose is a man-made natural fibre. It has been made from processed wood pulp fibres and has the favourable properties of cotton, but a much lighter drape like polyester making it great for beautiful ‘swishy’ garments. It is breathable and smooth to the touch. It can be used for adults and children alike.
It’s a popular choice for summer dresses, gathered skirts, floaty shirts and also casual and flattering peplum style tops.
We recommend you pre-wash your viscose before sewing as it can shrink up to 5% in the first wash as it is a natural fibre.
