Seersucker Fabric – Vicky in Ivory and Black Limited Edition | Atelier 27

Designed by independent studio Atelier 27, this seersucker fabric features the Vicky print — a black gingham check puckered across an ivory ground. The seersucker construction ripples the surface naturally, giving the classic check a soft, textured dimension. This print is produced in a single small run in France and will not be reprinted once sold out.

The hand is light and textured, with the seersucker's signature puckered ridges giving the fabric structure without added weight. It sews and wears easily, holding its shape while staying breathable and comfortable against the skin.

Sold by the half yard.

❓ Frequently Asked Questions

What can I sew with this fabric?

Blouses, shirts, and skirts — the puckered texture adds interest to simple silhouettes.

How much fabric do I need for a blouse or skirt?

Fabric is sold by the half yard, cut in one continuous piece. A blouse or shirt typically takes 3–4 half-yard units; a skirt takes 2–3, depending on your pattern.

Will it shrink?

No — as a polyester/elastomultiester blend, this seersucker won't shrink in the wash. The puckered texture may relax slightly on the first wash, though, so we recommend pre-washing before cutting — that way your fabric is already in the state it'll be worn in, and your finished garment keeps the fit you're expecting.

Is it see-through?

Opacity isn't specified by the vendor. The seersucker's puckered weave typically gives light-to-medium coverage rather than sheer.

What needle and thread should I use?

A sharp or universal needle (70/10–80/12) with all-purpose polyester thread; handle gently when cutting to keep the puckered texture intact.

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 are no import shipping, tariff, or customs processing fees.
