Rio crepe is a gorgeous and luxurious light-weight fabric that is very soft and drapes well. It also has a wonderful textured appearance due to the threads being twisted during the weaving process.
The spandex content in this fabric means that it has some stretch, making it comfortable to wear. Another advantage to using these fabrics is that they are crease-resistant.
They are suitable for a wide range of smart and casual dressmaking projects such as dresses, skirts, trousers, jumpsuits and jackets.
