Choosing the perfect fabric for your sewing project can make a huge difference in the final look and feel — and the Sage Dress is no exception!
Designed specifically for knit fabrics, the Sage Dress needs material that offers stretch, softness, and beautiful drape. Whether you want a flowy summer dress, a cozy top, or a maternity must-have, the right fabric will bring your vision to life.
Top Tips for Choosing Fabric for the Sage Dress:
- Look for 4-way stretch. A fabric that stretches both horizontally and vertically ensures the dress moves with you.
- Prioritize drape. Lightweight, flowy knits like bamboo jersey and rayon spandex are ideal.
- Think about opacity. Choose a knit that’s not too sheer, especially if you're making the dress version with a side split.
Our Top Picks for the Sage Dress:
- Jersey Knit: Think T-shirt fabric that is luxuriously soft, breathable, and has an elegant drape.
- Ribbed Knit: Lightweight but strong, perfect for an elevated everyday look.
- Double Brushed Poly: Ultra-soft and beginner-friendly with just the right amount of stretch.
