Suggested fabrics: The fabric choice will determines the look of your dress. If you go for a stiff fabric, then the A-line effect will be more pronounced. If you go for a fabric with a fluid drape, then your dress will have a more billowy effect, and ‘cling’ just a bit more. Good fabric choices are cotton, linen, jacquard and woollen fabrics or interlock (jersey), etc.
