Hello everyone! (first time posting here) I'm looking for AotC Inner robe fabric and I've found some I feel might work however I can't decide and would like a second opinion
Gabardine:

You'll want to find the fabric from an actual fabric retailer, not an etsy shop as most of these links are coming from. I would suggest something like Joanns or other large fabric retailer

I always thought the inner and outer material all had to be velvet/velveteen

No,the outer robe has 2 sides,the velvet and the lining,the lining is preferrably made of the same fabric as the inner robe,for those two I recommend a wine/burgundy twill. The outer robe is made of crimson red velvet
