Hi! I am planning on going to the district this week where do you recommend to go for affordable spandex/lycra fabric for things like swimwear?
My first stop for Lycra is always Blue Moon, everything is organized with a wide array of colors/textures/prints. There are other small shops in the 9th and Maple area that have Lycra, there’s an ok selection across the street in the Michael Levine’s building. If you need Lycra in bulk/wholesale (20yd minimum), I’d go check out Ragfinders on 8th and San Pedro
Castle Costumes ok thank you so much! i’m super exited i’ve never been
Where would you recommend for quality bridal fabrics?
It depends on what your budget is.
If you’re looking for higher end materials, I’d go to Mood Fabrics (online at www.moodfabrics.com, swatches are $1.50 per 5”x7” piece) the LA store is at the corner of Pico and Burlington downtown. They have a comprehensive selection of end of line designer fabrics, silks, laces, trims, and so on that will dazzle any bride. They are pricey, many of their laces are imported and start at $50 per yard.
In the 9th & Maple area, I’ve had good luck over at Journal Fabrics on 9th & Cecilia St with bridal satins and laces. They’re more the middle of the price range, and they’re often willing to negotiate the price if you’re willing to buy a larger quantity. A new spot with some pretty things is Golden Dolphin on Maple, which occupies the old Michael Levine’s Home Decor store. They have an array of bridal laces and base fabrics, as well as a nicely presented trim selection.
Any designer fabrics
