NY designer pleated faux-leather - black
contents: polyester
width: 59"
origin: NY designer
What a fabulous faux leather from a NY designer!! It is pleated in a not-quite-uniform way, from selvedge to selvedge, and then backed with a woven netting that holds the pleats in place (so there's no stretch and no opening of the pleats). I attempted to show that the fabric can be cut in either direction, so that the pleats go across, or vertically, or a combination of both. Can you imagine all the possibilities? It is soft and supple, with body in the drape, and just perfect for an edgy bomber jacket, blazer, fitted skirt or sheath dress, vest, faux leather pants, etc, etc! The underlayer is soft, so it doesn't necessarily need to be lined, and the selvedges are not backed so the pleating opens up, making a nice potential trim. Dry cleaning recommended.
