Viscose drapes soft and fluid. It is cool on the skin, which makes it the fabric for blouses, dresses and wide trousers. The fabric is 134 cm wide and weighs 100 g/m². It is made from 100 % viscose.
Blue/White is the colour found most often in a wardrobe — and therefore the easiest to combine. Stripes ask for attention while cutting: they should meet at the seams. A fluid woven asks for a fine needle and a short stitch length, so the seam does not pucker. Before cutting, a look at the care symbols on the article pays off.

Frequently asked questions
The fabric slips while cutting — what helps?
Lay it flat rather than over a table edge, weigh it down and cut with a rotary cutter. Pins leave holes in fine goods; clips at the edge are the better choice.
How do I wash it?
Cool and gentle. Viscose loses strength when wet and shrinks more readily than cotton. Before cutting, wash it once the way the finished piece will be washed.
Do I need a lining?
On thin, pale goods often yes — otherwise the garment is see-through. A light lining or a slip solves it without destroying the drape. A second piece of the same fabric will do as well, if the colour matches.
How much fabric do I need?
More for draping cuts than for straight ones: a dress with fullness needs the fabric its folds are made of. On repeat prints allow extra waste.
