Fabric recommendations
Choose a medium weight non-stretch fabric. Your fabric can have a little drape, or be very stable like the brocade in our sample. Note that light or drapey fabrics don’t work with a robust metal zipper, so if your fabric is light or has more than a little drape, opt for a regular spiral zipper or even an invisible zipper. Choose a firm rib knit for the collar.
