Moroccan Viscose Crepe Fabric – Marissa Print in Parma Limited Edition | Atelier 27
Designed by independent studio Atelier 27, this viscose crepe fabric features the Marissa print in a soft, multicolor palette of parma, pink, green, and ivory. The crepe weave gives the fabric a lightly textured surface with fluid drape, making it well suited for warm-weather garment sewing.

Frequently Asked Questions
What can I sew with this fabric?
Blouses, summer dresses, skirts, and flowing warm-weather garments in a soft parma palette.
How much fabric do I need for a dress or blouse?
Fabric is sold by the half yard, cut in one continuous piece. A fitted top typically takes 2–3 half-yard units, a blouse or shirt 3–4, and a midi dress 5–6 — order 4 units for 2 continuous yards. This fabric is 130 cm (51") wide, so allow an extra unit if your pattern assumes a wider fabric.
Will it shrink?
Yes — viscose shrinks by roughly 5% on the first wash. Always pre-wash before cutting (machine wash cold, gentle cycle) so your finished garment keeps its fit.
Is it see-through?
No — at 120 g/m² it is opaque; unlined garments are fine.
What needle and thread should I use?
A fine universal or microtex needle (70/10) with all-purpose polyester thread; handle gently when cutting to prevent shifting.
Is it really limited edition?
Yes — Atelier 27 prints each design in a single small run in France and never reprints it. When our bolt sells out, this print is gone for good. We stock it here in the US, so there is no import shipping or customs from France.
