Our sourcing philosophy
At Àlamain, fabric is never an afterthought. It is a central part of the design process.
We curate a refined selection of deadstock fabrics, premium natural fibres and recycled textiles sourced from the luxury fashion industry, chosen for their quality, character and sewability.
Each material is selected with a specific purpose in mind: to work beautifully with our patterns and help you create garments that feel modern, well-finished and made to last.
By prioritising responsible sourcing and thoughtful curation, Àlamain makes it easier to sew with intention, without compromising on style.
Designer deadstock fabrics
Our fabric selection is built around deadstock fabrics sourced from the luxury fashion industry.
These surplus materials, originally produced for high-end fashion houses and textile mills, are available in limited quantities and offer exceptional quality.
By working with deadstock, Àlamain gives these textiles a second life while offering makers access to designer-level fabrics rarely found on the retail market.
Distinctive textures, refined finishes and carefully chosen weights elevate handmade garments and make each piece feel unique.
How to choose the perfect fabric for your project
The same pattern can look and feel completely different depending on the fabric chosen. Weight, structure and fibre content directly influence the final outcome. That is why every Àlamain pattern comes with a curated selection of recommended fabrics. These pairings are tested during the design and sampling stages to ensure the pattern works exactly as intended, both technically and visually.
Not sure which fabric to choose? You can order fabric swatches to feel the material before committing, with samples available for any fabric in our collection.
Perfect fabric and pattern pairings
Àlamain fabrics and patterns are designed to work together. Our collections are built to help you achieve professional results at home. Explore our patterns alongside their recommended fabrics to discover combinations that highlight the design's proportions, drape and details.
Frequently asked questions
What are deadstock fabrics?
Deadstock fabrics are surplus materials from the fashion industry that were never used in production. They are new, high-quality fabrics that would otherwise go to waste.
Using deadstock helps reduce textile waste and extends the life cycle of existing materials, making it a more responsible alternative to newly produced fabrics.
Can I order fabric samples?
Yes. You can order fabric swatches for any fabric available on the site for a small fee of £0.50, allowing you to test colour, texture and weight before purchasing.
How do I know which fabric works with a pattern?
Each pattern design includes a curated selection of recommended designer fabrics that have been tested to ensure the best possible result.
How do I know how much fabric I need for my pattern?
Each Àlamain pattern includes a detailed materials list with precise fabric yardage for each size. You can find this information directly on the pattern page, making it easy to choose and order the correct amount of fabric for your project.
Do you ship fabrics internationally?
At the moment, fabric orders are shipped within the UK only. Patterns in PDF format are available worldwide.
