All about textile fibres! To know more about the various fibres used in the textile industry, please select the type of fibre you would like to see or you can just browse through the various fibres: Chiffon Type : Standard Silk and Silk Imitation Fibres Fibre: Silk, rayon, cotton, synthetics Weave: Plain Characteristics: Lightweight, sheer, transparent. Made with very fine, tightly twisted yarns. The tightly twisted yarns could be either in the filling or the warp or both. It is very strong, despite filmy look. Wears very well. It is very difficult to handle when sewing and it is best to baste the pieces over tissue to make it easier. It has slightly bumpy look. It is best suited to shirring, draping, gathering, tucking, etc., because it is so limp. If made in a straight sheath style, it should be underlined with very firm fabric. e.g. faille taffeta. Uses: After 5 wear, blouses, scarves. < Prev    Up    Next > Categories: Common Fibres Standard Worsted and Wool Fibres Standard Silk and Silk Imitation Fibres Speciality Fibres Plant fibres Manmade fibres Miscellaneous fibres
