looking for best cotton grammage to use in tanktops and longsleeves
Hi,
lately i'm very inspired by the work of early ricks work and i'm wondering how thick is the cotton that he was using.
it looks like it wants to be see through but it is not and that's why it got me wondering
i hope somebody will give some compartment of grammage and help me with searching for the best material

If you're in the US, call Mood Fabrics in NYC
They get some designer fabrics and Rick's extremely light cotton jersey he uses for tanks ends up there sometimes
unfortunetly not
europe, poland
Hmm you could try emailing then

Just be wary he also uses a viscose/silk blend for his tanks so idk which one he's got on in that ancient picture
Both drape really beautifully but the 100% cotton ones are like insanely light, tissue paper basically
thank you
if i manage to get them i'll update
