Ultra-Soft Bengal Muslin Cotton Fabric — Fine 100 Count | 45" Wide | 85 GSM
$18.35Excl. T.V.A.
Description
A beautifully refined Bengal muslin woven at a slightly heavier 85 GSM, this fabric embodies understated luxury. Finer than basic utility muslin yet lighter than lawn, this 100-count Bengal muslin strikes a perfect balance between airiness and substance. It has a clean, luminous surface, a whisper-soft hand, and a graceful fall that feels both artisanal and couture.
This is a garment-first muslin, crafted for makers who value tactile quality, breathability, and a polished finish rather than stiffness or heaviness. The fabric carries the quiet sophistication of heritage Bengal textiles, making it ideal for heirloom-worthy pieces and elevated everyday wear.
