Fabric behavior rules I use Soft drape for flutter sleeves and relaxed skirts Medium body for set-in sleeves and clean waist seams Good recovery at neckline and waist, especially in knit Low pilling risk for repeat orders Best fabric matches by style goal Hidden cost drivers buyers forget Lining for light colors or flutter sleeves Fusing for neckline and button plackets Better thread and needle choice to avoid puckering Pre-shrink or wash test for viscose blends How do I use a short-sleeve A-line dress for different occasions without changing the base block
