This might be the prettiest denim I've seen. The colour is that 'hard to find' brighter blue that seemed to be everywhere decades ago, but is rare today. It's a good weight cloth (310gsm) and so it's perfect for pinafores, jeans, simple skirts, and of course, jackets! There is no stretch to this cloth, so keep this in mind. While it is substantial it isn't stiff. It's soft and there is even a bit of drape if you wanted to explore A-line skirts, or fuller shacket styles. You are going to love this.
