By all means, please do go on with this series! To see all these old fabrics in colour is a real treat. They are so much superior to the crap offered in our times, in quality as well as design wise.

Fantastic to see the variety of textiles on offer at that time - A few modern tailors I've spoken to would try and have me believe fabric options were more limited back then, and this proves otherwise.

Congo Cloth seems to be a clone of/alternative to Palm Beach Fabric. It is smooth and very thin but dense and not see-thru.

Someone's been trying to sell this for ages.
