Silk Charmeuse Satin (45 Inch)

I used this silk fabric for a bias cut dress, and it feels amazing to work with. The color, the drape, and the flowyness of it matches perfectly with the vibe my client and I were going for her Prom Dress. Definitely Recommend it! Ps. Make sure to always Staystitch and stabilize the pieces already cutted to prevent shapeshifting. That's a rule of thumb when working on the bias of the fabric. :) <3
