Matte Satin
The matte sister to our shiny satin fabric, this material is luxurious, modern, and glare-free to let the bride shine in photos. Did we mention it drapes beautifully?

Touch & Feel: Silky & super shiny
Did you know? The floor-length dresses have a higher slit for maximum sex appeal and even the Lisa Midi looks more va-va-voom with added shine.

Chiffon
This is our go-to dreamy fabric and is at the core of our bridesmaid dress collection.
The Mood: Sweet and Romantic
Touch & Feel: Light and airy
Did you know? The lining of the dress makes a big impact on chiffon because of its sheer quality. Our swatches always come with a layer of lining so you're seeing the final color.

Crepe
With its stretchy, body-hugging quality, our crepe fabric is an obvious choice for modern silhouettes.
The Mood: Modern, sexy, and minimalist
Touch & Feel: Textured, stretchy, and spongey to the touch
Did you know? Light simply bounces off differently on crepe due to the pile, so colors can be perceived to be less saturated and can sometimes offer a more frosty effect on light shades.
Our Favorite Crepe Dress: Alex Convertible Dress in Dusty Blue
Velvet
A quintessential fall and winter fabric, velvet elevates any wedding mood into something sumptuous, textural, and sophisticated.
The Mood: Regal, extravagant, warm
Touch & Feel: Soft, sumptuous, with a slight stretch
Did you know? Velvet is naturally one of our thicker fabrications—right alongside crepe—making it a standout choice for cold-weather nuptials.
