I love to sew, so naturally I look for local fabric stores wherever I travel to. I'm as delighted…read moreto find this lovely, well organized shop in the heart of historic Rome. The silks and cottons were divine, and I'm glad one of my suitcases is half empty The staff was incredibly kind & helpful, and most spoke enough English that I knew the fiber content and price of everything before I had it cut.

Service was Bar. None! Selection was excellent and value was more than what I expected. The only…read morecomment I would make is that the bolts of fabric are lying down horizontally so it's hard to see them unless you pull them out.

You don't go to Italy for cheap bargain fabrics.. but still worth mentioning. My mother wanted to…read morebuy some fabric to make a dress. We went to a store near by but they only had drapes/curtain fabrics. They were kind enough to tell us where to go. Just like any other Italian business - they close during lunch time. We had to come back after 3:30. 2 men who seem to run the business were friendly. Again - not cheap but if you want to buy something you can't find in your own country, I'd recommend stopping by here.

This is my go-to store for fabric. They've got a good range of fabric, and for a decent price.read more

When in Rome, visit the fabric store!! That is my motto. I am a sewing enthusiast and so I an…read morealways on the lookout for fabric everywhere I go. I was directed to this area by someone in a Facebook group I belong to and all their recommendations have turned out to be on point. This store is quite big. There is the main floor section that has cottons, apparel and their expensive beaded selections. There is a room to the side, separated by a hallway where you can find ribbons and trimmings sold by the meter. In this room are their stretch, suiting, silky and velvet fabrics. Also, this is the room where you can find the few specials they have. And on the second floor is their home fabrics, for curtains, table cloths, upholstery and so on. Quite a great store, thousands of bolts of fabric. A great store.

I really liked a lot of their fabrics and some of them were NOT cheap. This older guy cut my…read morefabric. he did not like me watching him while he cut.... sure enough every single piece of fabric I bought from them was cut crooked and NOT the full meter or half meter I paid for.... I won't buy from them again because of this.... I will buy a half meter of fabric if the fabric is 50 to 90 euros a meter.

Very beautiful fabrics! High quality. There is nothing like this in the US. I usually shop at Mood NYC. Highly recommend!

I went to this store in search of buttons, to use on some projects that I knit and crochet. They…read moredo have a decent array of buttons, but you cannot just browse through them, but must be waited on. I have been several times and usually have found the people who work here nice enough--although this last time, the woman helping me was quite rude and it seemed as though it was a chore that i wanted to look at things. Keep in mind that a simple button costs at least 2 euros. I actually ended up spending 21 euros on 4 buttons--so they are definitely not cheap. If you are looking for a store where the people are super helpful, and they want to know what you're making, or give suggestions, this is not the place. You'll be on your own, hoping to find what you're looking for. That being said, the selection is quite good, even if it is expensive.

Fabindia retail stores are good and I like the quality of what they sell. I have bought several…read morekurtas and vests from them. But fabindia.com is HORRIBLE. I bought several kurtas online from them from the US. To begin with these online kurtas are overpriced. And when I washed them the first time, they turned into rags, unlike the ones I bought for a cheaper price at their retail store. Very disappointed. Selling bad quality products for a much higher price is not necessarily a wise choice to make, but fabindia.com has. Hell with it.

It was at the end of the day, and they were closing in 15 minutes I looked as much as I could in that time but I did not buy anything. I thought their prices were a bit high and since this was the first fabric store I visited, I did not have anything else to compare it to. I learned since them that fabric is expensive in Europe. They have quite a large selection of designer fabrics. I saw Versase, Roberto Caballi, and even Valentino. I wish I would have had more time to look at everything. This store was efficiently organized, fabrics were neatly placed. Loved it!

All three sales associates/employees remained behind the counter, not greeting us or anything. I glanced over several times. The elderly blonde woman continued to stare at me. I said hello, I have a question. She continued to stare at me. I'd rather they just say "get out of my store" at that point. Maybe its very American of me to expect to be greeted when I enter. But blatantly staring at me rudely when I ask a question is...I don't know. My first and currently (July 4 2019) only 1 star review ever.
