Hi, I'm looking for some good fabric with which to have this dress made: PS: I'm still looking for that special seamstress!

I could just use regular satin or silk, but the problem with that stuff is: One hangnail, and forget it. it's totally ruined. I'm spending too much on this dress to risk that, especially since I, the hangnail QUEEN, will be wearing it. =D

So what I'm thinking is perhaps a heavy, woven or knit fabric that has some nice sheen to it, reminiscent of satin, but able to withstand minor snags like hangnails and either not snag, or when snagged, you can cut off the snagged bits and the fabric still looks nice.

It would need to be solid powder blue, or similar, and not have an embossed design, or too much texture to it.

I have no idea where to start! Any ideas for me?
