Main Fabric - You will need any light or medium weight woven (non-stretch) fabric for this blouse. However, your fabric choice will be critical in how the garment fits and moves so please choose with the end look you are wanting in mind:

  • A light weight woven such as a chiffon, organza, or georgette will be billowy and floaty looking.
  • A light to mid weight woven such as a cotton lawn, cotton voile, silk, rayon, silk crepe, crepe de chine, taffeta or silk satin will drape.

Lining Fabric – It needs to be a light to medium weight woven fabric. Suitable fabrics include Habotai (silk or polyester), poly anti-static lining, cotton, quilting cotton, and satin.

OPTIONAL Interlining - Our favorite fabric for this is Coutil, but you can use a medium-weight woven with a little give such as twill, gabardine drill, or other similar weight fabrics. You can use Interfacing as an alternative to Interlining.
