Customer Reviews (4.6 / 5 · 5 reviews)

Penelope M. ★★★★★

The 55mm width is perfect for a structured waistband, and the rayon blend gives it a soft hand feel that drapes nicely. Sewing it onto a linen skirt was a breeze, and the shirred stretch recovers well after washing.

Matthew E. ★★★★★

I was pleasantly surprised by how the rayon blend gives this elastic a soft, fabric-like feel — it sews smoothly without bunching. At 55mm wide, it provides the right hold for a mid-weight skirt waistband.

Chloe ★★★★★

This 55mm width is perfect for the wide waistbands I sew, and the shirred texture feels substantial without being stiff. Stretches well and snaps back nicely, plus the French quality shows in the finish.
