In todays blog we'll be talking about the fantastic range of fashion Dressmaking Fabrics  that are available at Calico Laine.  Whatever your fashion style, there will definitely be something that appeals to everybody's taste. The ongoing trend of animal prints is still going strong, and at Calico Laine we have a wide range of prints to suit for every occasion. Animal prints can look fantastic for casual daywear, as well as being for glamorous eveningwear. If your looking to make a statement dress, our 'Fashion Print Animal' fabric comes in tan and blue colours and is an ultra soft jersey material that definitely stands out, or... if your a bit more daring, our 'Brown animal fashion fabric' will really show your fun side! Other fashion prints that are still big this year are what I like to call the 'hippy prints', ranging from bold multi-coloured patterned prints, to smooth floral designs. Dressmaking ideas for the summer are coming to mind already with floor length maxi-dresses still a big favourite.  Calico Laine's 'Fashion Print' range covers all your fashion dressmaking needs and is certainly 'on-trend' towards the coming spring and summer. A beautiful example from this range is our 'Fashion Print 14', which is a very soft burn-out jersey material which is a suitable choice if your after a bit of everything - with the leopard print and bold jungle/floral pattern, this is the best of both!  Another option is the 'Fashion Print 12' which is zebra print with a twist, made from the finest quality soft jersey and is another individual choice to bring your dressmaking on trend this year. However...if you're not ready to abandon the coats and scarves just yet, our 'Amsterdam Fahion Fabric' proves to be a popular choice for jackets, throws and body warmers.  It is a super soft pile luxury coating fabric, that will not only keep you warm, but looks fabulous too! Another huge fashion dressmaking trend is chiffon clothing, which is simple yet elegant, and here at Calico Laine we stock a wide range of colours to suit everybody. One colour that is going to be popular this year is lilac, and our 'Lilac colour 23' chiffon material is a beautiful choice for dressmaking this season, whether you want a statement blouse, or even just a simple chiffon scarf.
