Navigating Special Occasion Fabrics

Thinking about making a special-occasion dress or outfit—but feeling overwhelmed by fabric choices? Not sure where to start, or just curious about what’s out there? This TalkShop is designed to give you the textile knowledge you need to choose fabrics with confidence.

We’ll explore the wide world of special-occasion fabrics and break down how their characteristics—like drape, volume, weight, and handfeel—affect the final look of a garment. You’ll learn how to match fabric choices to the silhouette you want to achieve and how fiber content and weave play a key role in both appearance and performance.

Whether you’re planning a formal gown, a cocktail dress, or a statement outfit, this session will help you make informed, intentional fabric decisions before you ever cut your first piece.
