Identifying a fabric
« on: October 04, 2018, 13:44:22 PM »
Does anyone know what this fabric is called and where I might be able to buy it?  It's the contrast black sections and white sections from this Karen Miller dress and is described on the website as 65% acetate, 4% elastane, 31% polyamide.  When I google acetate / polyamide though I just get linings.  It's sort of a ribbed, stretchy, smooth, silky fabric if that makes any sense?!

Thank you for that Surest1tch, much appreciated.  Not sure why I didn't think of cord when I was describing it as sort of ribbed!
