Pleated Organza Fabric — 100 × 150 cm, DIY Sewing & Dressmaking
$36.55
Description
Organza with a built-in pleat. The fabric arrives pre-pleated, which means the volume, the movement, and the texture are already there — you cut, sew, and finish. Lightweight enough to float in a skirt, structured enough to hold its shape in a bodice or sleeve. At 100 × 150 cm (39" × 59"), each piece gives you enough material for a full skirt panel, a costume accent, or a run of event draping. Seven colourways from classic red to iridescent White Rainbow.
| Colour Options | Tone | Pairs Well With |
|---|---|---|
| Red | Classic bold red | Black, ivory, gold accents |
| Forest Green | Deep rich green | Cream, gold, earthy tones |
| Rose Red | Warm rose-toned red | Blush, nude, champagne |
| Sage Green | Soft muted sage | White, dusty pink, natural linen |
| White Rainbow | Iridescent white with rainbow sheen | Any colour — the sheen adapts to surrounding tones |
| Shell Pink | Soft warm blush pink | Ivory, gold, champagne, white |
| Light Blue | Pale pastel blue | White, silver, navy, soft grey |

How to Use This Fabric
Cut with sharp fabric scissors to avoid fraying at the edges. Finish raw edges with a serger, zigzag stitch, or narrow hem. The pre-pleated structure means you can gather at the waist without additional pleating work. For skirts, attach to a waistband or bodice lining. For event draping, pin or clip to table edges and let the pleats fall naturally. The White Rainbow colourway is particularly effective under stage or event lighting where the iridescent sheen catches the light.
Care
Hand wash in cool water or machine wash on a delicate cycle in a mesh laundry bag. Do not tumble dry. Hang to dry away from direct sunlight. Iron on the lowest setting with a pressing cloth if needed — do not iron directly on the organza. Store flat or loosely rolled to preserve the pleat structure.
FAQ
Is the fabric pre-pleated or do I need to pleat it myself? The fabric arrives pre-pleated — the pleat structure is built in. No additional pleating is required.
Can I cut it to a different size? Yes — cut to any shape or size needed for your project. Use sharp fabric scissors and finish raw edges to prevent fraying.
Will the colour match what I see on screen? Monitor calibration affects colour perception. We recommend reviewing all product images carefully before ordering. Order all pieces for a single project in one order to ensure colour consistency.
Is it suitable for outdoor event use? It can be used outdoors in calm, dry conditions. Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight which may cause fading over time.
