The Milward Concealed Invisible Closed End Zip is designed for sewists and fashion designers looking for a seamless, professional finish on garments such as skirts, dresses, and trousers. Offering a clean, hidden look where the zipper teeth are tucked away, it is the perfect solution for creating a tailored aesthetic. While it excels in light-to-medium weight fabrics, users should be aware that the no. 3 coil is not intended for heavy-duty upholstery or thick denim projects.

No, this is a no. 3 coil zip designed for light-to-medium weight fabrics. It may not hold up under the tension of heavy denim.
No, you can use the adjustable stopper to shorten the 25cm zip to any length required for your specific garment.
Yes, an invisible or concealed zipper foot is strongly recommended to get the teeth close enough to the seam for a truly hidden look.
The zipper coil is made from durable, lightweight nylon.
No, this is a closed-end zipper, meaning it does not come apart at the bottom; it is ideal for skirts and trousers.
Ensure your stitching line is not too close to the zipper coil; if the thread is catching the teeth, adjust your needle position slightly.
Avoid stretching the fabric while sewing; use a stabilizer or interfacing if your fabric is particularly thin or prone to shifting.
To install this zip, it is highly recommended to use a dedicated invisible zipper foot for your sewing machine, which helps press the coil open as you stitch. Ensure you press your fabric seam allowance with an iron before starting. To adjust the length, simply move the stopper to your desired position and secure it by sewing a tight bar tack across the coil with your machine before trimming the excess. For long-term care, always close the zipper before laundering garments to prevent the coil from catching or twisting in the wash.
