French Navy Pin Stripe Linen Bengaline

$24.00 per metre

This is a beautiful linen bengaline with a comfortable amount of stretch and a soft, fluid drape. The pin stripe runs across the grain, which is typical of bengaline fabrics, meaning you’ll cut across the stripe to take advantage of the stretch.

Made from a linen–rayon blend with a small amount of stretch fibre, it feels supportive without being stiff. The fabric moves well, wears comfortably, and has a flattering, easy fit — perfect for garments that need a little give while still holding their shape.

The colour is a rich French navy — slightly deeper and more classic in real life than it appears on screen — with a timeless pin stripe that feels both polished and wearable.
