Stretch Cotton Velvet Fabric - Black

A wardrobe classic with a little extra flexibility! This black stretch cotton velvet has a beautifully soft pile and rich, deep colour, making it a brilliant choice for creating timeless pieces with plenty of texture. Unlike knitted velour, this is a woven velvet, giving it a more structured feel while the added elastane provides a little extra ease and movement.

Made from 95% cotton and 5% elastane, it has approximately 10% two-way stretch, making it particularly useful for close-fitting garments where you want a little give without losing the shape and structure of the fabric.

We'd reach for this when making a pair of beautifully fitted velvet trousers, a statement jumpsuit or a tailored waistcoat. It's also a great option for jackets and structured separates that deserve a little something extra. A brilliant way to bring classic black velvet into your handmade wardrobe.
