    Puzzle Directions Graceful Green Collection Fine Poplin

    $29.00
    We are proud to be stockists of the new Verhees x Nerida Hansen collection arriving soon.
    Poplin is a plain weave fabric structured to provide lightness and durability. The Warp (lengthwise) and weft (crosswise) threads interlace alternately, with one thread going over and under creating a grid-like pattern which results in a tight and even weave. A high thread-count and very even weave means poplin typically has minimal stretch and crisp feel. Our lightweight poplin has a soft, smooth texture, making it an ideal choice for clothing items like shirts, blouses, dresses, and pyjamas.

    Pod Charming Cerise Collection Linen Viscose Washed

    $36.00

    We are proud to be stockists of the new Verhees x Nerida Hansen collection arriving soon.

    Linen Viscose is a fabric blend that combines the natural, earthy texture of linen with the softness and drape of viscose (a type of rayon). Linen is derived from the flax plant, which is known for its sustainable cultivation, requiring fewer pesticides and water compared to other crops. Viscose can be made from renewable sources as well, contributing to the fabric’s eco-friendly profile.

    This combination of fibres results in a unique textile with drape and a textured surface and a breathable quality that makes it comfortable to wear in warm weather. Linen also has moisture-wicking properties, helping to keep you cool and dry.

    While linen can be prone to wrinkling, the addition of viscose can make Linen Viscose easier to care for. Still, it may benefit from gentle ironing to maintain a polished look.

    London Floral Crisp Cobalt Collection GOTS Organic Cotton Voile

    $29.00

    We are proud to be stockists of the new Verhees x Nerida Hansen collection arriving soon.

    Cotton voile is a lightweight and semi-sheer fabric known for its soft, airy, and delicate qualities. It is incredibly lightweight, making it ideal for comfortable, breathable garments, especially in hot and humid climates. Its airy quality allows it to drape beautifully, making it perfect for flowing and breezy designs.

    The soft and smooth texture of voile is easy to work with as it has a fine, tight weave that will not easily fray when sewn. For Sheer, elegant blouses, scarves, dresses or skirts this is the ideal fabric. We have deliberately selected darker designs with more coverage to ensure you can wear our Voile without necessarily lining it.

    Boho Geo Charming Cerise Collection Lenzing Ecovero

    $32.00

    We are proud to be stockists of the new Verhees x Nerida Hansen collection arriving soon.

    Lenzing Ecovero is a sustainable and eco-friendly type of viscose rayon that is derived from renewable wood sources.

    Lenzing Ecovero is processed using Closed-Loop Production, which means that the chemicals and solvents used are recycled and reused, reducing water consumption and minimizing the release of harmful substances to the environment.

    We hope all garments sewn by our customers are never sent to landfill.  When you are finished with it, please hand it down, sell the garment, upcycle it or recycle it. As a last resort, I do prefer Lenzing fibres because they are biodegradable and can naturally decompose with a much lower rate of carbon dioxide emissions and no other toxic substance release compared to other rayons.

    Ecovero is known for its softness, breathability, and comfort, making it suitable for a wide range of clothing applications, including dresses, tops, shirts, and other fashion items.
