Lyocell
Soft Lyocell Fabric with Beautiful Drape
Our lyocell fabric is selected for modern makers who love softness, movement, and comfort in their handmade garments. Lyocell is a smooth, breathable fabric known for its fluid drape and gentle feel against the skin. It is often chosen for garments that need to move well and feel comfortable throughout the day.
At MaaiDesign Fabrics, we curate lyocell fabric with wearability and sewing performance in mind. Some styles may be described as Tencel fabric, referring to lyocell fibres known for their softness and refined finish. These fabrics are well suited to dresses, blouses, skirts, and relaxed trousers. Clear product descriptions and helpful details support confident online shopping. All fabrics are sold in 25cm increments and cut continuously, making it easy to order the right amount. While colours may vary slightly by screen, we aim to present each fabric as accurately as possible. If you are unsure whether lyocell fabric suits your project, no worries. Just ask and we will help.
Lyocell fabric is appreciated for its balance of elegance and practicality. It offers a smooth surface, excellent drape, and comfortable wear, making it a popular choice for everyday garments with a polished look. Tencel fabric options can feel cool to the touch and work well for warm weather sewing.
Most orders are packed and dispatched within 1 to 2 business days, with tracking included. Our Happiness Guarantee and 30 day returns provide reassurance, so you can shop with confidence and enjoy the making process from fabric selection to finished garment.
