A
sheer, light weight, dull-finished fabric with amazing feature of
body-hugging, popularly known as georgette is always a hot-picked one
for me. Party or social gathering, corporate event or wedding
ceremony, be it any occasion, I love to adorn myself in this fabric.
Not only because of its light-weight and dull-finished look but
primarily because of its overall bouncy appearance with a tinge of
grace is the reason for my affection towards this fabric. I am sure
there are many women like me who share equal love for georgette, and
those who don’t will soon develop as they will discover further
about its unique characteristics.
So,
let us here delve more about georgette fabric to know its origin,
history, types and fashion.
Origin
& History:
Though
very little is known about the history and origin of georgette fabric
yet (with limited knowledge which I possess) I can ornate its source.
A famous French fashion designer, Madame Georgette de la Plante
introduced this fabric in the 20th
Century. Like any other French dressmaker, he chose this fabric as
his primary tool to redefine the fashion world of those days. It is
popularly believed that the main source of inspiration for creating
this unique fabric is ‘Chiffon’. However, with a little
distinctive feature, georgette is more durable and strong. It comes
in both translucent and opaque texture with crushed or twisted feel,
and widely loved because of its elegance and grace.
Varieties:
With
a lot of experimentation and research done with georgette, it is now
available in different types, each with unique texture and feel. Let
us here list down some of them.
- Nylon Georgette Fabric
- Silk Georgette Fabric
- Jacquard Georgette Fabric
- Viscose Georgette Fabric
- Satin Georgette Fabric
- Polyester Georgette Fabric
With
clingy and flowing texture, georgette is the best choice for almost
all women. If looking for something stylish yet comfortable, then you
can always
have a blind faith in this fabric. As it tends to give a perfect
drape, georgette is good for sarees and various other dresses. While
eastern outfits can perfectly be stitched with this fabric with
ultimate opulence, western wears can be given a perfect shape with
it. In fact, georgette is the most demanding fabric among eminent
fashion designers to showcase their twisted style on the stage.
