Poetics of Love Viscose Crepe by Mood in Beige and Dusty Blue

In stringing together words and piecing together images, our Mood Exclusive Poetics of Love Viscose Crepe attempts to capture that elusive feeling that drives us all: love. Poetic language is handwritten over floral polaroids, taped together like a collage. Due to tightly twisting fibers during weaving, crepe is deliciously textured with a grainy hand. Alternating the direction of these twists yields a springy drape that brings movement to your semi-formal looks—and dare we mention that modest sheen? This light-to-medium weight fabric dreams of city-street-approved maxi skirts, in-office trousers, and date-night blouses. Semi-translucent; a lining may be desired.

Here are a few tips from our sewists to master crepe’s unique texture:

1. Lower the thread tension on your sewing machine to prevent puckering
2. Use a new, fine point needle
3. To prevent slipping during cutting, line up your pieces with the pattern pieces, cut in single layers, and use a rotary cutter or tabletop scissors.
4. Be patient and have fun!
