Colour:
Merle Midnight Black is a super chic fabric that has the richest black tone, like the feathers of its namesake, gleaming in the moonlight, oozing style. Classic black: think Tuxedos, Little Black Dress, and so much more!
Properties:
Merle Midnight Black has a deliciously opulent look and feel. If you thought satins were sleazy then think again. Imagine the roaring '20s and '30s eras when the sylph-like bodies of heiresses were draped in the finest satins. The face side of this quality fabric has a lustrous sheen that looks and feels like silk. Acetate and cotton produce a fine hand which feels cool and breathable.
The matte reverse side displays a fine horizontal grain or faille, adding to the quality feel of this superior fabric. Stable width and lengthwise and possessing a fluid drape quality and medium weight allows for attention-commanding styles.
Garment Suggestions:
Cut on the bias for '90s slip dresses or ramp up the drama and produce backless ballgowns worthy of the red carpets of Hollywood.
For easy-wear separates create simple Dolman sleeve tops with slash/boat necks, oversized shirts, shirt dresses and wide-leg trousers, '70s style classic bow-tied blouses and dresses too.
Create movie star loungewear, satin pyjamas and robes, and add dramatic black lace to soften the look or go for bold oriental embroidery motifs for drama!
Other Uses:
Merle Midnight Black will make superb headbands and other fabulous accessories, scarves, cravats, cummerbunds, evening bags and purses.
