Organza Fabric
Loved for its lightweight and decorative appearance, organza fabric is a top choice for wedding dresses and occasionwear. Its shimmery and translucent look pairs beautifully with thicker fabrics such as satin and habutai. This, in turn, adds dimension to formal gowns and evening attire. Our organza material comes in a range of vibrant colours and patterns. Find our selection of fabric below.
What is organza fabric?
Organza is a sheer, lightweight fabric, which was originally made from silk. However, now you can enjoy the beauty of this material in synthetic options such as polyester and nylon. While modern fabrics are more durable, the nature of this material, due to its composition, is extremely delicate. The main qualities of organza fabric are:
· Breathability
· Transparency
· Sheerness
· Fine texture
Caring for organza fabric
Organza is a very fine and sheer material, which makes caring for it essential. It should never go in the washing machine. Instead, hand wash with gentle detergents. However, in most cases, taking organza garments to the dry cleaner is a better option to avoid damaging the fabric.
