Has anybody used the duchesse satin from Fabric.com? Is it chintzy looking or does it do the "ooh, it could be silk" thing?

Sara, I love that you are so dedicated to detail on your Dr. Who project. It's going to be awesome.

Thanks for the info on the other fabric site. I'm looking for something that doesn't scream "cheap poly satin!" which is something that's hard to see on the internet.

I just realized they don't call it "duchess satin" at that site. I got a sample of the L'Amour satin, and what I love is that their sample cuts were a full 1/8 yard cut, so you can actually see how it drapes.

The cheapest looking (and cheapest priced) I found was Sy Fabrics, in case you're shopping around and come across them.
