The muslin for the My Pattern contest are ready for the real fabric. Originally I had one fabric picked out, but have found two other contenders and now I can't decided. Please, help!
The outfit is a long, sleeveless jacket with stand-up collar and self-fabric belt over narrow-legged pants. I plan to have this be a transitional suit that will take me into fall. The jacket looks something like this
Here are the fabric candidates:
The original choice from EOS (I like the description and the fact that it's cotton, but am not sure about the texture in the close-up shot, it looks a little rough.)
A cotton sateen from Gorgeous Fabrics (I love sateen, but for this outfit am concerned about the shine and wrinkles.)
A wool gabardine from CandleLight Valley Fabrics (I love gabardine, but am not always careful about pressing. Also, do I want wool?)
What would you choose?

It will have the belt loop details, topstitching (in the same color), and a button closure. The button closure is the main thing I added from the picture shown.
