This pure cotton poplin is a clean, versatile fabric with a smooth surface, fine weave, and lightly crisp handle. Its tightly woven construction creates a neat finish with the subtle crosswise texture characteristic of classic poplin.

At 180 GSM, this fabric sits comfortably in the midweight category. It has more substance and structure than lightweight shirting poplin while remaining breathable, flexible, and comfortable for everyday wear. The fabric holds collars, pleats, gathers, and tailored shapes particularly well without feeling excessively heavy or stiff.

Available in three essential shades—White, Navy, and Black—it is suitable for both classic wardrobe staples and contemporary structured designs.

Care Instructions

Pre-washing is recommended before cutting, as cotton may shrink slightly during its first wash.

Machine wash on a gentle cycle or hand wash in cold water using a mild detergent. Wash Navy and Black separately from pale fabrics, particularly during the first few washes.

Do not bleach or soak for extended periods. Dry naturally in the shade to preserve the darker colours. Iron on medium heat from the reverse side.

Please Note

Colours may appear slightly different depending on lighting and individual screen settings. We recommend ordering the complete quantity required at one time, as minor colour variations may occur between production batches.
