Velours – Buy Per Meter

Velours – Per Meter is a high-quality, soft fabric series without shine that gives a luxurious look to any garment or project. This quality combines 92% polyester and 8% elastane for a perfect blend of flexibility, stretch and structural strength. The plush pile feels silky soft, while the matte finish provides an elegant and timeless look.

Processing and maintenance

For the best result, process Velor with a jersey needle (size 70/10 or 80/12) in your sewing machine. Use fine polyester sewing thread such as Gütermann 200m to create strong, flexible seams. A stretch or coverlock stitch prevents fraying and maintains elasticity. Cut the fabric with a sharp rotary cutter or fabric scissors to minimize fractures in the pile. For care: turn fabric inside out before washing, use mild detergent, and hang to dry to retain pile and shape.
