Fabrique! Fashion Fabrics is a new and unusual store for the best couture apparel fabrics. The owner, Lora Simonds set out to offer the most beautiful fabrics for creative people who love to sew. Today we don’t sew out of necessity; we want to make clothing for the creative outlet. You don’t have to compromise on design, fit, or color if you make it yourself. We hope to inspire those who know the pleasure of sewing for themselves or those have a design idea and want a dressmaker to make it come to life. If you don’t know how to sew, Fabrique! has sewing classes from beginner to couture. If you are a dressmaker we want to work with you and your clients.

Bridal fabric has a special area in Fabrique! We have chiffon, peau de soie, Duchess Satin or charmeuse and many more. The laces are lovely, weather they are French or domestic. We will match your designer inspired dress or sketch your own ideas, then suggest fabrics. Our knowledge and helpful staff are here to share their expert sewing skills. Bridal is our passion!

Along with the largest selection of bridal fabrics is the North Texas area, we carry couture designer fabrics and over fifty Superfine 120’s wools. These are tropical weight for year round wear. Our cashmere is so soft it is almost a decadent experience! We also have French Laces, Beaded Laces, embroidered panels, refined or raw silk for any garment, and the finest Italian Cottons for blouses or men’s shirts.

With the wave of environmentally friendly products, we offer organic cotton and hemp that has not been chemically treated or dyed. We also carry eco-friendly Bamboo in denim, voile and suiting.

We are featuring the works of a local artist, M. Alexandra. She has hand painted and embellished our fabrics panels. Each one is a story in its own way and every piece is better than the last one. These are one of a kind and she will not duplicate any. When they are gone.....

We carry Folkwear Patterns. They are true to the time period or ethnicity and we have the whole line. Sewing Workshop Patterns have timeless styles for all figure types. We have Marfy, LaFred, and Textile Studio too!

Whether you have been sewing since you were nine or if you are new to sewing we welcome anyone who loves fine fabrics. Today’s fashions don’t play by designer rules. We take inspiration from everywhere. Past designers and vintage looks are seen influencing today’s fashions. Come in and let your creativity flow.
