Beautiful fabric - it’s quite a sumptuous one and feels great on. I bought 2 m and managed to make a short kimono jacket and matching vest. I love it!

This lightweight, faux silk fabric features a vibrant print. It has a beautiful drape and a soft feel. The blend of bamboo and nylon in this fabric gives it a silky smooth finish with a subtle sheen, mimicking the natural elegance of real silk, while also enhancing breathability and comfort.
This fabric's lightweight and airy nature makes it perfect for flowy garments such as blouses, tops, chic summer dresses, scarves and more. Due to its slightly sheer nature, it would also work well as a layered fabric or when lined for added coverage.
Overall rating: 4.9 / 5 from 15 reviews.

I cannot wait to have time to make this 1930’s jumpsuit out of this gorgeous fabric.

Beautiful fabric and I love the dress I've created. It doesn't iron completely smooth but it doesn't seem to matter

Lovely fabric, colour just sings and has a soft sheen. Not as slippery as thought so had no issues cutting or sewing up this blouse. Used New Look pattern 6414. My only issue with fabric is ironing. I cannot get it totally smooth. I had washed fabric before cutting giving it a quick press to get ride of any main creases. Since making up garment I have tried both steam and non steam ironing but fabric still has a slight waffle appearance when looking closely at it. As it is very patterned from a distance it does not show but am cautious to use very hot as fabric is delicate.

I am so pleased with ghis silkette bamboo fabric. Lovely to sew with and beautiful to wear, very soft feels more expensive than it is. My new favourite fabric.

I am still undecided on this bamboo mix fabric. It has a nice drape and is silky but feels a bit more 'nylon' than I expected. That said I really love the pattern and colour. It is light weight so the 1960s dress I want to make will need to be lined.

The Button Up Blouse from The Wardrobe book by Deer and Doe in bamboo silkette. Light comfortable fabric, feels nice next to the skin. Washes and irons well and is easy to sew, not as slippery as you might think. I’d love to use it again in more muted colours

Lovely material just as described. Does. It. It too much heat as mine burned so be careful with ironing. The style made me keep ironing so it burned
