Bella + Canvas 8855 - Women's Flowy Long-Sleeve V-Neck - White

The Bella + Canvas 8855 is the Women's Flowy Long-Sleeve V-Neck, a drapy 3.7 oz poly/viscose body in a long-sleeve V-neck cut, the blank a decorator reaches for when a women's program wants a soft draped long-sleeve with an open V-neckline rather than a crew or a structured cotton long-sleeve. It is the long-sleeve for boutique and resale lines, fitness, yoga and studio programs, festival and event merch and the bachelorette, bridal-party and group runs that buy a soft draped V-neck by the dozen. The body is a lightweight 3.7 oz of 65% polyester / 35% viscose spun to 32 singles, the drapy jersey that gives the flowy line its loose retail fall, cut with a V-neckline, long sleeves, side seams and a tear-away label. The size range runs S through 2XL, in five colours: White, Black, Midnight and the heathers Heather Athletic and Heather Dark Gray, all of them a poly-and-rayon flowy body.

The 8855 decorates as a poly-majority drapy body, not a cotton long-sleeve, which sets the method list and rules out the cotton routes; the open V-neckline also shapes where a print sits, with a centre-chest design dropped a touch lower so it sits clear of the V and clean on the front body. For DTF, the transfer bonds to the poly/viscose face at a low-to-standard heat press, the standout and most forgiving route across the whole flowy colour range; keep the artwork on the front body below the V-neck and use a soft low-bulk film so the print moves with the drape rather than stiffening the loose body. For screen printing with plastisol, the poly-majority fabric migrates under a hot cure, so run a low-bleed ink and a poly-blocking underbase, keep the deposit light and the cure moderate, and back the drapy panel so it does not distort on the press. For vinyl, a light flexible HTV presses at a lower temperature on the heat-sensitive body, so keep the design small and centred on the body so it moves with the fall of the long-sleeve. DTG does not apply, since the 65/35 poly/viscose body carries no cotton for the ink to bond to and the lightweight face reads poorly. Water-based and discharge inks do not apply, since the poly and viscose body will not discharge. Embroidery does not apply, since the drapy 3.7 oz body is too light and loose to embroider without puckering and distortion. Sublimation is not a reliable route, since the viscose content does not hold disperse dye and the colours are not a white polyester substrate.

The reorder note specific to this style: treat it as a poly-majority fashion body, so default to DTF for clean colour across the whole range and place any art on the front body, dropped clear of the V-neckline. Hold a light deposit and a moderate cure on any screen run because of the poly migration, and press any HTV cool.
