Customer Reviews (5.0 / 5 · 5 reviews)

Aurora ★★★★★

The weight is perfect for swimwear—solid at 240 gsm but still drapes nicely, and the 4-way stretch makes it forgiving when you're cutting out a two-piece. I've already washed a test swatch and the teal and light blue crabs stayed bright with no curling at the edges.

Violet ★★★★★

It’s hard to find swim fabric that holds its shape after a few washes, but this one’s 75% nylon really keeps the stretch coming back. The crab pattern in teal and light blue is crisp, and at 240 gsm it feels substantial without being stiff. I’ve already cut out a rash guard and the edges didn’t fray

Hazel O. ★★★★★

The colors on this stretchy nylon-spandex blend are even prettier in person — that teal really pops. It feels substantial at 240 gsm, perfect for a swimsuit that won’t go see-through. Very pleased with how smooth it glides under the machine needle.
