Silk Georgette Fabric for Formal Women Wears

Silk georgette fabric as its name implies, is a textile traditionally made from silk though synthetic fibers

such as polyester are sometimes also used for the same. Its crinkly crepe-light texture makes it

distinctive from other fabrics available in the market. However, this texture feels slightly dull and rough,

but at the same time gives the fabric a flowing and bouncy look. The crepe like texture makes it very

springy so that it appears to move by itself.

Tightly woven threads of this fabric give it an appearance of slightly sheer as the threads are very thin

and so highly twisted that the material crackles when relaxed. Unlike fine silks, the georgette fabric is

also usually strong and holds up well to various kinds of wears. Since, this fabric is made up from silk

which is highly absorbent, georgette fabric can easily be dyed or colored in a myriad of colors and also

printed with a pattern.

This fabric is a very much

popular choice for women’s

fashions in which flowing, clingy

like European linen fabric are

favored. Since, it is light in

weight silk georgette fabric is

thin and can be used as a layer

in a larger garment without

being bulky or heavy. Several

designers use this fabric for a

fanciful effect especially in

gowns. Beautiful bridal wears

for evening wedding occasions and also a few formals are made up of European linen fabric and that

make them look flowingly flawless.

Silk georgette fabric is in itself so soft, colorful and beautiful that there is no requirement to decorate it

to give it more attractive and beautiful look. And if still trying to decorate it with beads or other

decorative material, it can spoil the beauty and also pull the material down with the weigh as itself it is

very light weight. But in case, if you want to decorate it, then embroidery may be used. Please note that

decorations are usually kept simple so that they don’t drag the texture down and pull the garment out

of shape.

Furthermore, the material is slightly slippery and makes it difficult for your designer or tailor to stitch it

and that’s why they prefer to sew it with the help of tissue paper or something similar on the fabric to

keep pieces of the fabric together. Evening outfits, wedding gowns, and other formal wear are

sometimes made with georgette fabric. In addition, this fabric is also used to make shirts, jackets, and

other casual outfits usually for women. Many experts suggest that silk georgette fabric must be washed

in cold water with mild detergent and remember to keep it out of the sun to avoid fading at the time of

dry.
