Yes...such a pity about its not being good for period work, because the stiffness, sheen, and colors are just so fabulous. I think my other reply sounded as if I don't love Dupioni. But I do! It's such a disappointment that I can't use it for 16th c. period gowns. *le sigh* Howevever...I have been sorely tempted. And I have done a corset and petticoat in it, which turned out wonderfully, but outer layers...haven't gone there yet.
