nylon metallic
 
Elegant in color and design, this embellished lace from Milly is a stunning choice for evening dresses, or tops. Rich plum florals are outlined in silver metallic for a dramatic and sophisticated fabrication. Nylon/metallic. 
wool tricotine


This plum tricotine wool sports a textured hand that will work well in tailored suits and separates. The color is seasonal and combines well with grays and black. Milled in Italy.
poly spandex lace  
 
 Looking to put on the glitz? This fabulous sparkling lace from Anna Sui is just the thing. Use it as a full dress or tunic with an under layer or choose sleeves or bodice to combine with a knit solid. The lace features stemmed floral motifs. Silver and white face yarns are twisted with black. Poly/spandex 
modal spandex 
 
Finely knit jersey from Eileen Fisher in classic black is a must-have to freshen your wardrobe. This is lightweight, not tissue, and will work well for your T-tops: tees, tanks, turtles and tunics. Modal/spandex
washed Tencel
 
Taking a stroll or taking in the sites, this is the perfect trouser fabric for three season wear. This 100% washed Tencel in a rich charcoal gray is easy to work with and easy care. Whether you choose separates or a suit, this fabrication will work well as a staple in your wardrobe. 
Look who has been shopping the warehouse!
Mary found her colors today! When you find your best colors in fashion, that is the time to buy!  They may not come around again.  Mary hit the jackpot with our Autumn I and II collections this year.  We thought it was fun that her stack of fabrics was almost as tall as Mary!

Flawz

Wild Kingdom Trio
We recently found a variety of really fun animal prints.  Unfortunately when the goods arrived, the selvages were too tight to lay the fabric flat.  Rather than ship them back, we negotiated with our supplier to sell them to you at a fraction of their original cost.  We've done some testing and this is what we found.

If you trim off an inch or more on either selvage, the fabric will lay much flatter. If you wash the fabric several times, the puckers will relax even more.  We think this will work out fine for casual tops or even for Halloween costumes at this price!

Originally priced at $15.00/yd.  Now 3.25 yds for $15.00
