Product description

Product description

Coutil is a special fabric used for making corsets. Woven of sturdy 100% cotton, it is known for its durability and stiffness. This coutil in nude color features a herringbone weave (a broken twill) that lends added strength and keeps it from stretching out of shape. What’s more, coutil has a high thread count and is so perfectly stiff that it won’t give even a fraction of an inch. If you are looking to put together a really sturdy corset that won’t budge, you’re in the right place – no material is better suited for the job.

Coutil is a specialty fabric and not widely available. You may see corset patterns substitute ordinary cotton or linen twill in its place, but these cannot compare to a real coutil in terms of strength and stability.

You’ll most often see corset coutil used for the inner layer of the corset under a pretty face fabric like satin, dupioni, or brocade on the outside and a comfortable cotton lining underneath. You can, however, use it with confidence for a two-layer corset, either as a lining that doubles as a stiffener, or as a face fabric with a lining underneath.

For corsets made with coutil, we generally recommend spring steel boning, but the fabric is strong enough on its own that you can also choose spiral steel or plastic boning (the corset will hold firm even with these more flexible options). Be sure to use lacing bones where the corset laces up so that you can get a tight lace without worrying about torn eyeholes.

FAQ

Should I pre-shrink fabric before sewing?

Generally, pre-shrinking is needed for linen, cotton, and rayon, but for finer fabrics (light rayon, Tencel and modal) proceed with care – don't use hot water or a hot iron, simply launder the fabric the way you will be laundering the completed garment.

Is your product assortment always the same?

Most of our fabrics are one-time offers that last until they are sold out. However, some more popular items are always restocked or can be ordered on request. As a rule, this applies to notions, where the selection is pretty consistent, but may also include some types of fabric. Look at the product's availability value – it shows whether the goods are available while supplies last, in the core inventory or in a seasonal collection.

What is a seasonal collection?

The goods in the seasonal collection come directly from our verified manufacturers. We change up the colors on offer from season to season but fabric quality is always constant. For large (wholesale) orders, colors that have been sold out can be reordered individually.

What is a limited edition?

Limited editions are fabrics of exceptional quality or patterns that have been designed and produced exclusively under the Sartor brand. As a rule, they do not repeat and are therefore only available while supplies last. Don't miss your chance to own a true original.

Do you ship abroad?

Yes. We ship worldwide. The price of shipping is automatically calculated at checkout before payment after you select the country of delivery and the preferred carrier. If you do not find your country in the dropdown list, please contact us. You will find a rough overview of shipping costs in our shipping and payment terms.
