My Favorite NEW Fall Fabrics Pt. 2

I promised I'd be back with another favorite fabric choice from this Fall's upcoming collection, so here I am!  There are so many beautiful fabrics to choose from it is so hard picking favorites.  If you missed my last post about my favorite vibrant red and paisley fabric you can view it here.

My next top fabric is the Fiona Jacquard Teal and Cream.  Jacquard fabrics tend to be very resilient and intricate in their patterns.  Perfect, since you're going to want to wear this piece all the time!  Our Fiona Jacquard, with it's beautiful bright teal color and all over print, makes it the perfect fabric for our pencil and classic skirts as well as our new Fit and Flair Sevier dress!

To me, this fabric is all about being fun and elegant, quirky and refined.  Pair it with bold oversized accessories or add a polka dot cardi to really play up the fun side!

Give it a try!

New Fall Fabrics Sneak Peek!

TGIF!  I love looking forward to the weekends, and it's Friday, so lets celebrate!  I wanted to give you all another sneak peek into our upcoming fall collection so you can begin to familiarize yourselves (and fall in love) with our new fall fabrics.  They are so gorgeous!!

The first is the Liberty Crew Paisley Auburn.  This print is so bright and happy!  I'm instantly drawn to it's vibrant red tones and light weight feel.  This fabric makes a great transition piece because it can be worn during the hot days of August through the Fall season.  It's paisley print makes it cute to layer in a Boho fashion as the weather becomes cooler.  So think long sweaters, boots, rope necklaces, and over sized handbags or little leather clutches with some fringe!

What's What With Fabric

Have you picked out which fabric you're going to use for your new Sevier Dress this Fall?  There are so many beautiful choices it's hard to pick a favorite!  Right now I'm going between Liberty Water Stripe Red for my Shift (click to see more!) or Morgan Diamond for my Fit and Flair (click to see more!).

Of course there are always the new fabrics to look forward to.  It's so exciting looking through those new fabric swatches imagening them as skirts and dresses.  While Fabric shopping in Paris, LA, and New York this past season we chose items specifically with our dresses in mind, so expect to see some beautiful pieces.

A lot of people have been asking me, are there certain fabrics that work better for dresses and what should I look for when choosing a dress fabric.  Great question!  Here are a few things to keep in mind when choosing a dress Fabric:

I know what you're thinking.  Yes, all of this is great, but what does it all mean.  

Lets begin with #1.  Light weight fabrics are great for movement.  Since the shift dress is all about comfort and style check out our Liberty fabrics like the Floral Trellis or the Mandarin Ribbon.  Subtle embroidery fabrics also looks great as a shift such as the Karolina Embroideries in Ivory, Blue, or Black.  The Blooming Dots both look amazing as do the Floressence fabrics.

#2 Since the Fit and Flair has a little more structure they work really well in a heavier fabric.  We love this style of dress in all shades of the Morgan Diamond, Ace Teal, Valerie Rainbow, Spiral Lattice, Marissa Grey or Black, and the Willow Branches.

What we mean by "Non-textured" is avoid anything with an applique or ruffle that extends off of the fabric.  While this may look amazing as a skirt sometimes it might not work well for a dress.

Of course, these are just guidelines when choosing your fabric.  It really depends on what you love and feel great in!  I can't wait to see what everyone chooses this coming Fall!
