This fresh, perfect white, polycotton dressmaking fabric has a cleverly pre-pleated treatment that makes the pleats stay in when the garment is washed. The best part about fabrics like Issey's Perfect Pleat's is that the fabric doesn't need ironing, in fact, you shouldn't iron it, instead simply gather into a vertical bunch and twist, then let the fabric dry naturally.

Named after the fashion designer Issey Miyake who pioneered the pre-pleated fabrics fashion in the '90s, make your own couture styles for a fraction of the cost. Younger designers like Stella McCartney have also used pre-pleated designs such as micro pre-pleats, like the simple elasticated waist skirts we have seen on the high street in recent seasons.

Fashion yourself chic shirt dresses perfect for hot summer days, shirts and blouses, culottes, playsuits and ruffle sleeve tops, bardot tops and simple pop-over sundresses with shirred bodices and spaghetti straps, all excellent choices to make from this practical fabric.
