Tencel Twill Fabric Ecru

Tencel Twill Fabric Ecru

This Tencel Twill Fabric in Ecru has that gentle off-white warmth that photographs so well and drapes even better. Look closely at the surface and you will notice the fine diagonal twill lines catching the light, giving the fabric a soft sheen without ever looking shiny or synthetic. It falls into loose, rounded folds rather than sharp creases, which tells you a lot about how this fabric will move once it becomes a garment. A quality worth having in your stash if you like fabrics that feel substantial yet still flow.

What kind of material is this

Tencel, also known as lyocell, is a fibre made from wood pulp through a closed-loop production process, which makes it one of the more sustainable choices in the fashion fabrics world. The twill weave gives this Ecru fabric its subtle diagonal texture and helps it hold its shape while still feeling soft against the skin. It breathes well, keeps its color over time, and is biodegradable at the end of its life. You get that lovely cool, smooth hand feel typical of lyocell, combined with the structure and slight body that a twill weave brings compared to a plain weave.

Projects and applications

The combination of drape and subtle sheen makes this fabric a good match for garments where movement matters. Think about pieces that need to skim the body rather than cling or stand stiff.

• Blouses and relaxed shirts
• Wide-leg or straight trousers
• Midi and maxi skirts with soft pleats
• Wrap dresses and tunics
• Kimono-style jackets or dusters
