WHO IS HE?

Cotton , by nature, is a natural fiber, breathable but retains water if it is exposed to raindrops.

Atelier Brunette's water-repellent cotton , thanks to a sophisticated technical treatment, withstands light showers. Dense and structured, it allows water to bead and roll off without penetrating the fibers. Practical and elegant, it evokes the oilcloths of our childhood.

This material remains uncompromising in the natural feel offered by cotton, which is also certified (BCI and Oeko-Tex).

WHY DO WE LOVE IT SO MUCH?

Its drape is ideal for our trench coats , jackets , rain hoods and why not our toiletry accessories.

Its touch is as soft as a cuddly toy.

OUR TIPS BEFORE SEWING IT

Avoid using erasable markers for your sewing marks: they can leave very visible brown or white marks after ironing.

Opt instead for a chalk pencil (like the ones our grandmothers used).

Our water-repellent cotton has received a specific treatment that guarantees its waterproofness for up to 8 washes.

For your projects, we recommend a universal size 80 needle.
