Thank you, Andrea, for sewing for us!

Question on material (I am not as experienced a sewist as some of you). What does everyone think of stretch corduroy for this? Thinking of making the short version with sleeves for a daytime look. I am afraid if I use something velvety it would look to "evening/formal".
