Even through your darker days, our Mood Exclusive Vicariously Vibrant Viscose Crepe helps you feel a bit more like yourself. Vibrant roses shine their saturated petals onto a black background, bringing brightness into your wardrobe. Due to tightly twisting fibers during weaving, crepe is deliciously textured with a grainy hand. Alternating the direction of these twists yields a springy drape that brings movement to your semi-formal looks—and dare we mention that modest sheen? This light-to-medium weight fabric dreams of city-street-approved maxi skirts, in-office trousers, and date-night blouses. Semi-translucent; a lining may be desired.

Here are a few tips from our sewists to master crepe’s unique texture:

1. Lower the thread tension on your sewing machine to prevent puckering
2. Use a new, fine point needle
3. To prevent slipping during cutting, line up your pieces with the pattern pieces, cut in single layers, and use a rotary cutter or tabletop scissors.
4. Be patient and have fun!
