Taffetta is a classic dress fabric. Our 'Red & Green Check Taffeta' is a popular fabric for making bridesmaids and prom dresses, as well as unique haute couture fashions. This elegant dress fabric will drape nicely and has a soft hand with a light weight. Metallic gold threading adds a dusting of gold shimmer throughout the material, giving 'Red & Green Check Taffetta' a festive appearance.
‘Red & Green Check Taffetta’ is constructed with nylon and acetate blended fibers classifying this material as a man-made synthetic. Nylon is stronger yet weighs less than any other commonly used fiber. It’s fibers are non-absorbent and dry quickly, resisting weakening from chemicals and perspiration. Acetate resists shrinking and wrinkling and provides enough pliability to give this fabric a soft drape and luxurious look.
