Vogue Fabrics Catalog - Fall 2023 Color-Coordinated Fashion Fabrics
These fantastic Fall fashion fabrics will prepare you for the colder months ahead. Update your wardrobe with some choice knits, wools, and surprises! These fabrics and more are available for online purchase from Vogue Fabrics Catalog - Fall 2023.
The catalog staff has declared this issue is full of UAP - Unquestionably Awesome Pieces! Seriously, just clap your eyes on UAP Nacht and imagine all the amazing fashion separates you will sew with this fine pinwale, cotton-rich, black stretch-woven corduroy. Unleash your creativity on UAP Grid, a phenomenal reversible knit from fashion designer Andria Lieu. The face comes alive in autumn shades against a black knit, and the reverse has very subtle tone-on-tone black leopard spots. Choose a sewing pattern where the reverse shows, and get more WOW! from your garments. We couldn’t resist including UAP Santa Fe as a pop of pumpkin for your ensemble. Whether you stitch up wide-legged pants or a tunic, we are sure you will find a way to spice up your wardrobe with a dash of this beauty.
UAP Paisley brings the rich, earthen tones of the autumn change-ofseason color scheme. We envisage a sueded knit dress worn with a ribbed velvet jacket, as well as a long paisley skirt paired with a wonderful knit top made from UAP Ginger. This lovely medium-weight ponte knit has a supple hand and a soft face.
One day a little girl came up to our sequin collection and exclaimed, “My favorite color is sparkle!” Yours will be too, once you have worn your new top or dress created from Europa Sparkle. This has been a best-seller in our retail store. Rich plum velvet provides the backdrop to a plum paillette harlequin design outlined with tiny amber sequins. Prepare for holiday festivities now by sewing a Europa Amber dress and sparkle jacket, or whip up Hollywood pants and a sparkle top. This crepe-back-satin is reversible, making it perfect for self-contrasting designs.
Create a tunic or Kimono from Europa Reverie to wear through the spring. The softness of the rayon, along with its light drape and elegant design, makes this a winner. We picked up on the warm tones in some of the flowers and leaves when we sought out Europa Maroon. This stretch-woven twill is durable enough for lightweight pants and skirts in warmer winter cities and has enough body to be worn as a classic button-down shirt up north.
We are so glad we pulled aside the yardage we wanted of Structure Suede for this issue because our retail store sold its stock within a month, and it isn’t re-orderable. Crepe on one side, suede finish on the other... you can’t go wrong. Choose this whenever you need a medium-weight woven or stretch-woven. The color perfectly brings out that same shade in Structure Paisley. Whip this up in your favorite knit top or dress pattern to feel the binky-soft fabric against your skin throughout the year.
Nature Imposter is a unique knit made to look like embossed leather. If you love sewing Ponte knits, substitute this for a high-fashion look.
Nature Felix teal stretch-woven suiting is medium weight with a soft face and full body. Tailor teal slacks to provide a handsome base for a new top created from Nature Intrigue. Loosely knit, mingling colors in neutrals, teal, and black, with a hint of shimmer, this designer fabric has some wonderful fashion options. First, the obvious knit top which we recommend wearing over a tank made from one of the Modal knits in this collection. Second, craft a long, thin scarf you can wrap around your neck twice and let it end at your knees.
Tropical wools can be worn all year due to their lighter weight and breathability. Nature Pinstripe’s neutral tones add sophistication to any wardrobe. Sew a long pinstripe skirt or slacks to pair with a ruched knit top from the Nature Taupe modal knit, then toss on a cardigan made from the Baroque knit and you will have a super sharp ensemble for work and for dinner with friends.
Nature Romance features subtle, swirling undertones of moss and dark blue-grey, topped with a Baroque design in pale mauve and cream. If you are conservative in nature, a simple knit top or boxy hip-length sweater will suffice
Look at Satellite Sharp and what do you see? Sport coat? Pencil skirt? Slacks and a vest? Tailor them all with this wonderful woolen. Every three inches there is a very subtle green thread in the weft, and a very faint blue thread in the warp. The rich tan color provides a strong foil to the fuzzy zigzags of Satellite Warmth. Whether you craft a cardi, a hoodie, a wrap, or a knit sweater coat, one thing is for sure: this plush sweater knit from fashion designer Andria Lieu will excite you when dressing for the cold days ahead.
Take a walk on the wild side with Signals Flare. Texture, color, and visual stimulation make a winning combination.
Check out this heavy sweatshirt fleece called Signals Smooth that is 80% cotton, 20% polyester, and 100% amazing! We also have the matching rib knit from the same design house. Make sure to order Signals Ribs to sew as the cuffs and bandings on your hoodies and joggers.
