I used Mauve pinwale corduroy for my Kriss dress. I love it. I put the patches on according to the pattern marks. It’s a great pattern. It does run really large. I made mine I the size small. I bought a beautiful silk scarf on Etsy to wear with it. 

You have inspired me. I have a gray cord.... maybe I'll make me one! Yay Love the color you chose.
wow i never thought of corduroy for Kriss dress! That's awesome!
Really wonderful color, would love to make it in cord too. Thanks never thought of that type of fabric. Looks great
