Punta Di Milano Jersey Fabric

Punta Di Milano Jersey Fabric per Metre

Punta Di Milano jersey fabric, also known as milano jersey, is a heavy knitted fabric with a firm hand and a smooth finish. Made of 65% viscose, 30% polyamide and 5% elastane, it looks identical on the front and back, which makes it easy to work with when cutting pattern pieces. You buy this fabric by the metre in our webshop, ready to combine with a firm structure that holds its shape well. It's a fabric that many home sewers reach for when a project needs more body than a standard cotton jersey.

What makes Punta Di Milano jersey different

Unlike lighter jersey knits, this fabric has real weight to it. The blend of viscose, polyamide and elastane gives it structure without stiffness, so garments keep their shape after wear and wash. It stretches, but it doesn't sag or lose tension over time. That firmness is exactly why it works so well for tailored pieces rather than loose, draping styles. If you're used to sewing with thinner jerseys, expect a different feel under the needle, more resistance, a cleaner cut edge, and less curling at the seams.

Suitable for dresses, blazers and trousers

Because of its elasticity combined with sturdiness, Punta Di Milano is particularly suitable for:

• Fitted dresses that need to hold their silhouette
• Blazers and structured jackets
• Trousers with a clean, tailored line
• Skirts, both pencil-cut and A-line

The fabric drapes just enough to move with the body, but it won't cling like a thin single jersey would. That balance is what makes it a common choice for smart-casual and workwear-style garments.

Ordering per metre and fabric samples

You order Punta Di Milano jersey fabric per metre, so you only buy what your pattern actually needs. Not sure how the fabric feels or drapes before committing to a larger cut? You can request a fabric sample for €0,50, a practical way to check colour and weight against your project. We ship from our warehouse in Tilburg, and the range covers a good number of colourways alongside the standard milano jersey quality.

Looking for a lighter alternative

If Punta Di Milano feels too heavy or too firm for what you're making, Punta Di Roma is worth a look, a lighter and more affordable jersey with a similar look but less structure. For other knit textures within our range, browse the rib knit jersey fabric for a ribbed finish, the waffle knit jersey fabric for texture with more give, or the ottoman rib jersey fabric if you want a bolder ribbed structure. Those working on activewear or swim-adjacent projects might also check the scuba crepe jersey fabric, while the jersey glitter fabric adds a bit of sparkle for eveningwear.

Punta Di Milano jersey in short

Punta Di Milano jersey fabric combines weight, stretch and a clean double-sided finish, making it a solid pick for dresses, blazers, skirts and trousers that need to hold their shape. Order it by the metre, request a sample first if you're unsure, and build your next tailored project from a fabric that's made to last through regular wear.
