Fabric selection rules I follow I pick fabrics that gather without looking cracked I avoid fabrics that hold hard crease lines at tier seams I confirm shrinkage before bulk cutting, especially in viscose Good vs risky fabric list Safer: viscose challis, cotton voile, light crepe, chiffon with lining Medium risk: poplin (must be light), linen blends (wrinkle story) Higher risk: heavy satin, thick twill, heavy denim, stiff taffeta Lining decisions that change quality No lining: only if fabric is not sheer and seams feel soft Partial lining: bodice lined, skirt unlined for airflow Full lining: for light colors, but it adds cost and reduces movement What are the biggest production and QC risks for tiered A-line dresses
