Deadstock
Reducing Waste from the Textile + Fashion Industry
In the fashion industry, deadstock refers to fabrics that are either surplus or left over from production, including high-quality designer textiles. By sourcing deadstock fabrics, we are giving them a new lease on life and keeping them out of landfills.
Floral Embroidered Eyelet Cotton Deadstock - White + Black
This cute cotton deadstock has captured our hearts! Its tiny embroidered flower and vine details and itty-bitty eyelets make an adorable way to sew up anything sweet and feminine. With a crisp drape and a textured hand (thanks to the embroidery), we see this cotton as a perfect dress bodice, a pair of lined statement pants or shorts, or a delightful blouse. Almost opaque (due to the tiny eyelets), it may require a lining for some applications.
Always pretreat fabric before sewing to remove chemical sizing from the manufacturing process. Pre-washing also gives you a better sense of the true drape and handfeel of a fabric. We recommend washing and drying fabric in the same way you intend to wash your finished garment. Be sure to separate brights and colours, as some dyes and prints may run the first few times you wash them.
It’s important to wash and dry cotton to remove any potential shrinkage down the road. Machine wash in warm water and tumble dry on medium or hot. More delicate cottons like voile, double gauze or embroidered cottons should be washed by hand or on the delicate cycle. Use a hot iron when pressing.
