Thread: Fabric Sourcing - bridal illusion tulle by the yard

Not a belly dance project...but a wedding project! I'm on the hunt for champagne colored bridal illusion tulle. I've only been able to find it by the bolt, but I just need a few yards to make my veil (two tiered, fingertip length). Anyone have have an idea where to source this? My usually hunting in the Garment District has only yielded 72" wide, and it looks like I really need the 108" wide.

Maybe you could dye it with tea or something.

Thanks, I'll have to order a swatch--love places that give you that option. I decided to go with making my veil because no one seems to carry veils in my dress color (antique ivory/champagne), and I'm having an incredibly hard time justifying a one-time wear that's starting at around $200 for a simple custom veil. Crazy markup!
