Description

Altrosa 435 presents itself as a muted, warm shade of pink without being sugary sweet - more aged rosewood than nursery pink. The colour feels calm and pairs well with natural tones or bolder shades alike.

As a medium-weight cotton jersey at 220 gsm, the fabric drapes softly while still holding its shape. It falls into fluid folds without becoming see-through - exactly the right density for dresses and shirts. The feel against the skin is pleasantly soft, thanks to the 5% elastane blended with 95% cotton.

The stretch allows freedom of movement without the fabric losing its shape over time. With a residual shrinkage of 5%, pre-washing before cutting is recommended so the finished piece keeps its fit. Sold by the metre at 155 cm wide, there's enough width for various pattern pieces.

What Vanessa Altrosa is suitable for

  • Suitable for dresses, as the fabric is opaque enough at 220 gsm.
  • Works well for shirts and tops thanks to its soft hand and the stretchy cotton-elastane blend.
  • Recommended for kidswear and bodysuits, as the series was designed for this purpose and is OEKO-TEX Standard 100 certified.
  • Usable for leggings, though the stronger cross-stretch should run around the body.

Sewing tips

  • Vor dem Zuschnitt waschen
  • Kombination mit Heike-Bündchen im gleichen Farbcode für Bündchen und Halsausschnitte.
  • Bei Leggings die stärkere Querdehnung um den Körper legen.

Matching colour code 435

Frequently asked questions

How stretchy is this fabric?

Thanks to the 5% elastane combined with 95% cotton, the jersey has stretch and works well for close-fitting patterns like leggings or bodysuits, with cross-stretch being the stronger direction.

Do I need to pre-wash the fabric before sewing?

Yes, since the residual shrinkage is 5%, washing before cutting is recommended so the finished garment keeps its shape and fit afterwards.

Is the fabric opaque?

At a weight of 220 gsm, the jersey is opaque enough for dresses without feeling stiff or overly heavy.

Does this colour match other Swafing fabrics?

Yes, Altrosa 435 runs colour-matched to Maike French Terry and Eike brushed sweat under the same colour code, so shirts and jackets can be combined without colour variation.
