I'm sure someone on this list can answer this question for me: What
the heck is silk gazar fabric?

Picture a heavy organza that's shiny/satiny on one side, at least when
purchased from FFC. I got some of their gazar, and though it was
absolutely GORGEOUS, it was also a nightmare to sew. If I hadn't been
making the dress for a client who loved the fabric, I would have
thrown it out. Or better yet, had a bonfire. It catches and runs and
is so slippery you think you're going insane, and the dye job doesn't
quite go all the way through--if the fabric gets creased you can iron
it ou, but you'll have a pale line where the crease was.
But it is gorgeous.
