Before
This is a lightweight viscose fabric sourced from Italy and ex-Isabelle Marrant. It drapes beautifully and it will be ideal for lightweight dresses, tops and skirts. It is not transparent but you might need a lining if making a skirt or trousers.
After
The 'Midnight in Milan' Viscose
Ex-Isabelle Marrant
This ex-Isabelle Marrant viscose has a water-like drape that designers kill for. It's cool against the skin and moves with a fluid, expensive swing.
Born to be a bias-cut slip dress. Or an oversized French-tuck shirt. It's opaque enough for tops, and for trousers I'd give it a silk lining. That drape deserves to move.
A word of warning: this fabric is slippery to cut. Take your time, use weights, not pins, and you'll be fine. Worth the effort.
