We adore these luxurious yet relaxed satin-backed crepe fabrics which have fabulous movement and the ability to gracefully reveal a shape underneath. Our rose pink satin-backed crepe fabric is our latest colourway; perfect for a flowing dress, striking separates or a even softly-draping suit.

What kind of fabric is this?

Our pink satin-backed crepe fabric is is a beautiful-quality polyester crepe with a distinctive satin reverse. It can be used with either side as the right side – or even using both sides as a form of contrast within the same garment. It has the weight of a heavier dress fabric or a medium-weight suiting depending on your perspective.

What does this fabric feel like?

The face of our rose pink satin-backed crepe fabric has a clearly-discernible but typically refined crepe finish which has a rounded texture without any sense of roughness. It’s is backed with a gleaming matt satin finish offering a myriad of silvered pink tones which is smooth and fluid to the touch. It is comfortable to wear and soft next to the skin.

How does this fabric move?

This pink satin-backed crepe fabric has a supremely fluid movement. It falls into heaps of rounded folds and moves with a delightful swing. You can see how it drapes and moves in this video.

Will I need to line this fabric?

These satin-backed crepe fabrics have excellent opacity for their weight. A top, dress or tunic wouldn’t need lining although you may wish to do so if your pattern requires a close fit or structure. The satin reverse means that it moves freely against the body although you might wish to opt for a half-slip for added ease of movement or if you’re using the crepe face on the inside.

What can I make with this fabric?

Dresses, skirts, trousers, suits; tops and tunics are all options for this pink satin-backed crepe fabric; we think it’s an immensely versatile and elegant cloth. Pastel satin suits are quite the thing at the moment – you could take a look at a deslgn such as the ‘McKenzie’ Blazer from Style Arc – which has matching trousers too.
