Taffeta Black-cognaq

If you are looking for a festive, elegant fabric for a luxurious garment, this taffeta in black-cognac is an excellent choice. The fabric stands out straight away with its lightly lustrous surface and warm cognac tone that catches the light beautifully. Made from a strong blend of 51% polyester and 49% polyamide, it has a classic plain weave that gives it structure and body. At 140 cm wide and 121 g/m², this dressmaking fabric feels refined while still holding its shape well. Because taffeta is naturally a little firmer, it is ideal for designs that need volume and a clear silhouette.

Perfect for structured and voluminous designs

This non-stretch fabric is a superb base for garments that need to keep their fit reliably. It is versatile, easy to work with and offers excellent value, making it a great choice for sewing enthusiasts of all levels. For the best finish, we recommend using fine needles when sewing. Please do not tumble dry and do not iron on a high heat; gentle washing at 30 degrees helps preserve the unique sheen and structure.

This taffeta really comes into its own in projects that call for extra elegance and presence, such as glamorous evening wear, a smart blazer, a festive dress or a graceful flared skirt. Think of a striking cocktail dress with pleats or a special jacket for a formal occasion. The fabric shapes beautifully and creates an impressive silhouette.
