Recommended Fabrics

The Studio Tunic is designed for mid-weight woven fabrics. The fabric you choose will influence the finished look and drape.

Ideal fabrics include:

• Mid-weight linen
• Chambray
• Cotton twill
• Essex linen
• Light canvas
• Viscose-linen blends (for more experienced sewists)

For a soft, relaxed look, choose washed linen or other drapey fabrics. For a more structured utility style with a defined A-line shape, opt for light canvas or cotton twill.

Tip: If using a heavier fabric, consider using a lighter-weight fabric for the facings to reduce bulk.
