Beere is a rich, warm red that stays clear of pink or burgundy tones - bold yet still wearable for everyday clothing. The colour sits evenly and densely on the jersey, without any shimmering or uneven patches.
At 220 g/m² this Vanessa jersey falls into the medium-weight range: it drapes softly on the body without clinging like a light single jersey, while still holding enough shape to stay opaque. The handle is smooth and pleasant against skin, and the 5% elastane content gives noticeable recovery after stretching.
Thanks to the 95/5 cotton-elastane blend, the fabric stays stable in shape and keeps its fit even after repeated wear and washing. The dense look in Beere makes it an easy-going choice for many patterns where colour and drape take centre stage.
What Vanessa Beere is suitable for
- At 220 g/m² opaque enough for dresses and skirts.
- The 5% elastane content makes the fabric stretchy, suiting close-fitting shirts and leggings.
- As a medium-weight jersey soft enough for bodysuits and kidswear.
- Colour-matched to Maike (French Terry) and Eike (brushed sweat) under the same colour code 639, making it easy to combine for sets without colour mismatch.
