Recommended Fabric
For flowy, soft dress or shirt, choose fabric with rayon or bamboo content, in addition to spandex. For a more structured dress (ad if you choose to add pockets) look for a mid-to-heavy weight fabric with at least 40% stretch and good recovery such as French terry, cotton jersey, or ponte.
