Recommended Fabric

Use a light to medium-weight woven fabric without stretch. The drape will affect the garment's look: softer fabrics fall gently, while stable fabrics highlight leg shaping. Great choices include chambray, viscose-linen slub, sandwashed linen or cotton, ikat, Brussels washer linen, light twill (like Ventana twill), or Essex cotton-linen blend. Recommended fabrics are opaque and weigh 4.8 oz to 7.9 oz (155-268 gsm).
