3 Metres Luxurious Crepe Duchenne 60' Wide (Black)

In fabric terms, crêpe Duchenne is a lightweight, soft, drapey silk or silk-blend fabric with a slightly crinkled or pebbled surface. It’s closely related to crêpe de Chine, but often softer and with a more luxurious hand.

Typical characteristics:

• Fiber content: Usually silk, but can be made with rayon or polyester in modern versions.

• Texture: Fine crêpe weave with a subtle matte finish and a lightly textured surface.

• Drape: Excellent—fluid, flowing, and elegant.

• Weight: Lightweight to medium-light, making it ideal for garments that require movement.

• Uses: Evening gowns, blouses, lingerie, scarves, and dresses—especially when a soft, graceful fall is desired.
