This luxury Italian-crafted polyester satin features a unique combination of weft stretch and a firm warp weave, making it an ideal alternative to stretch silks such as charmeuse. The sheen is not overly shiny, making for a wonderful shimmer with great colour fastness. It takes synthetic dyes and sublimation print exceedingly well too! It is the Stitch Witch's favourite lingerie fabric for this very reason, it's so adaptable and lush...
- Unlike silk, it maintains its elegance, colour, and charm even after washing.
- Carefully sourced from a UK deadstock specialist,
- Perfect for creating luxurious lingerie, including bras, slips, briefs, panties, etc
- Try making it up with delicate lace appliqué for a breath-taking slip dress or styled simply as an elegant bralette and thong set.
This wonderful satin is easy to cut using shears or a rotary cutter; It does not fray easily and can be neatly worked at the sewing machine. Always use a sharp needle with a fine diameter to avoid snagging; press with a cool heat when ironing. It does not wrinkle easily, but you can iron a pleat or crease into it and it will stay until it's pressed open. You may find that Boselli is a tad slippery when worked, so use fine silk or bridal pins to 'baste' your layers together prior to stitching.
