Ponte is without a doubt one of our favorite materials. Have a long commute? Need to fly but look good for dinner? Have a day with a lot of errands? Need to look good but don't want to feel constricted? Want stretch but don't want to sacrifice structure OR break needles on your sewing machine? Want knit but not VPL (visible panty lines)? Ponte solves all of these problems. Not to mention that Victoria Beckham's VB Body Collection line is all Ponte. How can Posh Spice be wrong? My number one Ponte outfit is a straight skirt with a matching jacket. For example, the Elemental Skirt paired with the Morris Blazer, both linked below, are a match made in heaven. The straight skirt works for all occasions, and having a matching jacket makes for a clutch suit but also looks great on its own with shorts or jeans. It's the Swiss Army Knife of outfits. In addition to the pattern suggestions below, if you're a Seamwork member, check out the Baz, Samson, Dexter, Chip, and more.
This is a deadstock item, so not only do you have almost 5 feet of width to work with for this great low price, you're also saving fabric from landfills!

Many fabrics in the Sewing Studio are "dead stock" fabrics from the fashion industry, and fiber content is sometimes best educated guess. Sourcing in general is less predictable during COVID-19, and it's very rare to restock a dead stock fabric during normal circumstances. We source and purchase only what we feel to be of the highest quality for our customers.
