Product Information

Full details

The Minerva Core Range Sequin Mesh Fabric is an ideal choice for fashion designers and home sewists looking to add a touch of glamour to evening gowns, cocktail dresses, and dancewear. Its primary benefit lies in the dazzling, light-reflecting sequin finish that provides a high-end look, though users should be aware that the sheer tulle base necessitates the addition of a separate lining for most garment applications.

FAQs

Is this fabric machine washable?

No, this fabric is hand wash only to protect the sequins and the delicate tulle mesh.

Do I need to line this fabric?

What is the weight of this fabric?

The fabric has a medium weight of approximately 210gsm.

Can I use this for heavy-duty upholstery?

No, this is a dressmaking fabric intended for apparel such as gowns and costumes, not for upholstery.

What is the width of the fabric?

The fabric is 130cm wide.

Troubleshooting

Needle skipping stitches while sewing

Ensure you are using a sharp, new needle and try using a walking foot to assist with feeding the sequinned material.

Sequins falling off along the cut edge

Apply a light bead of clear fabric sealant along the seam allowance or use a stay-stitch to secure the edges before assembly.

Fabric snagging on other items

Ensure all seam allowances are properly finished and enclosed within a lining to prevent internal snagging.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent light-catching properties for a premium look
  • Medium weight fabric maintains structure well
  • Highly resistant to creasing during wear
  • Versatile for multiple applications from cosplay to formal wear

Cons

  • Requires a separate lining due to the sheer tulle base
  • Hand wash only care requirement
  • Sequins may require careful handling during machine sewing

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your project remains in peak condition, follow these specific guidelines:

  • Preparation: Always pre-wash or test a swatch to ensure no unforeseen shrinkage or colour bleeding occurs, though tulle is generally stable.
  • Lining: You must pair this with an opaque lining fabric, such as satin, silk, or a high-quality cotton lawn, to provide coverage and comfort against the skin.
  • Care Instructions: Due to the delicate nature of the sequins, this fabric is strictly hand wash only. Avoid harsh detergents or scrubbing the sequin side directly. Lay the garment flat to dry in a shaded area, away from direct heat sources.
