Introduction:
Khaki Sage is a fabulous designer deadstock fabric. Originally used to create super stylish women's wear with a chic sense of style. Easy-wear cotton and viscose fabrics are perennial favourites for creating smart, stylish and hard-wearing apparel.
Colour:
This subtle chic grey-green-based fabric has the gentle silver-green tones of Mediterranean sage and boasts a silken sheen for a quietly confident style. Natural green hues sit perfectly with camel beige hues, rich tan and of course classic winter white.
Properties:
Khaki Sage is meticulously woven from a high thread count of superfine cotton and viscose yarns. The close silky staggered twill-woven construction thus produces a light-mediumweight fabric with a subtle silken sheen. Apparel made in this quality fabric will be well worth the effort of paying attention to detail.
A stable handle, medium-lightweight, reassuringly heavy drape and pleasing almost silky cotton feel, make Khaki Sage perfect for a plethora of practical and classic clothing.
This fabric boasts excellent strength, stability and a versatile handle. It will drape well displaying the subtle sheen and has a pleasing malleable hand, yet will hold crisp details such as collars and top-stitched panels; characteristic of utility styles with the use of a little light- medium interfacing. Depending on the patterns you choose you can style this fabric in a seriously smart way or something more casual.
Garment Suggestions:
Khaki Sage will of course create the snazziest suits, but consider all the wonderful stand-alone pieces you can create from it too! It is perfect for fashioning smart jackets and waistcoats which will look great teamed with classic white shirts, tan brogues and jeans. This clever suiting will of course make the finest suits for stylish gents and ladies.
Wide-leg trousers, like The Pattern Stash - Cordelia Trousers, will create an elegant timeless style akin to Katherine Hepburn's iconic style, adding deep turn-ups for a swishy drape that will make you walk with style. Team with The Pattern Stash - Jemima Waistcoat for a simple but striking suit combo! The use of interlining is recommended for the waistcoat to add structure.
If suit-making isn't your forte, fear not! Put this superb fabric to use for less formal, but equally smart outfits, such as shirt dresses, tunics, pinafore dresses and skirts too. Perfect for shirt-style dresses and shirt-waister styles with a vintage vibe too. The Merchant & Mills Shirt Dress and Trapeze Dress will look stunning in this fabric. There's also a simple drawstring-waist trouser pattern too such as The 101 Trouser.
