deluxe 'RPL' viscose blend stretch suiting - loden

This deluxe RPL viscose blend stretch suiting is a modern classic, an upgraded alternative to our RPL gabardine, a long-time staple. It is a poly/viscose/elastic blend, an opaque suiting/dress weight with a bit of body in the drape and about 15% stretch in the LENGTH (so pattern pieces are layed across the width). The construction is a 2-ply woven which cannot be separated, and the weave forms a diagonal crosshatching for a crepey surface texture and matte finish. The color is loden (PANTONE 17-0517 is close) and it is Oeko-Tex certified, assuring non-toxic chemicals and dyes. Sophisticated, classic, easy care and wrinkle resistant, so it's great for travel, work, day to evening, etc. A great choice for sewing tailored or drapey styles including suits, jackets, a sheath dress, skirt, trousers, pants, etc. Hand was cold and lay flat to dry or dry clean. Iron on medium and do not bleach or tumble dry.
