Thread: Source for burn-out velvet with stretch?

I really like the look of burn-out velvet that some designers (Eman & Hoda Zaki, Mumtaz) have been using recently for costumes. Has anyone found a good source for purchasing it? With stretch would be ideal. I assume what they're using has some stretch to it.

Spandex World Inc. spandex fabric, lycra stretch fabric

They have everything stretchy!

Yes - love that site and Spandex House, too. Haven't seen burn-out on either site, though. Did I miss it?

Also, I think I've seen it called something else, can't remember . . . so if you know of another name for it, please share. ..g.:

Let me look I swear I seen it!

Here are some!

It was under stretch velvet, and when you look to the right they have the type of velvet categorized.

Unless we aren't talking about the same thing???

Give me a picture of what it is and I will see if I can find it. I have a ton of fabric sites on my favs.

Like this - parts of the pattern are see-through, shows up especially in the skirt - Belly Dance Store.com: gallery and Belly Dance Store.com: gallery

Ahhh! BRB!

The first picture looks like a chiffon based fabric, while the second looks stretchy, or it could be rayon/silk?

Here are some links to some fabric online stores.

Don't forget to check Etsy, EBAY, and your local JoAnns - I have seen it there, especially in the clearance section =)

I've been looking for stretch burnout velvet too. I got some burnout from the fashionfabricsclub website but they're all chiffon-based rather than stretch.
Here's some I saw on spandexhouse.com - Welcome to Spandex House Inc.. At the bottom of the page.

Oooh - good lead because I think that's the other name I was looking for, "cut" velvet.

Thanks for the leads! Hopefully I can find some stretchy stuff in there.

Also try "devoré velvet" or just "devoré." The burnout velvet Emans I've seen have definitely had stretch.

Thanks! I'll add that to my search options.

I just found this:

Velvet Devore £6.99 - CheapFabrics Online

it's not cheap!

try dharmatrading.com seems i saw it on there once

Ooh but they have bottle green! I haven't been able to find a nice green stretch devore anywhere!

Bizarre as it seems, that price is cheap for Australia. It's impossible to find stretch velvet (apart from panne) here under $20au/metre (which would be about 9 GBP). It's almost worth getting it shipped over.

Might try dharmatrading if you've had good experiences with them, Jes.

It's so...beautiful. (the collection of lovely things here.)

I swear I have it in almost every color. Stretchy, slightly sheer. I also have it in silk velvet.

Reviving the thread.
Anyone have any more sources? I can't find much around at the moment and I have a hankering...
Eshta, do you still have yardages of stretch burnout?

Try www.spandexdepot.com. they have some neat stuff, maybe some burnouts? It sometimws seems to vary a bit.
