Wedding dress fabrics

Chiffon

Slightly less expensive than silk, chiffon is more airy and light. It is often used in the manufacture of A-line and Empire dresses. Chiffon is very popular with romantic brides and fans of classic beauty ideals.

Organza

This fabric is used mainly to add volume to the wedding attire. If you want to wear a puffy dress, choose a petticoat from this material.

Organza is most often used for dresses in the style of a princess or a mermaid with skirts diverging to the sides.

Crepe

This is one of the main fabrics of bohemian wedding dresses! Crepe is admired by its wavy surface. It looks very good on straight sheath dresses, as well as on empire dresses and can be combined with many other fabrics and ornaments.

Mikado

It is very dense silk with a granular texture. It is perfect for strapless wedding dresses, especially in princess or A-line style.

Lace

Lace is a symbol of romanticism. Your dress can be decorated with lace only in certain places and can be completely covered with it.

Of the many varieties of lace in fashion, today are Chantilly and guipure.

Chantilly

Weaves exclusively by hand with bobbins. Chantilly is especially suitable for floral motifs; it creates a delicate, traditional or romantic image of the bride. It is used to decorate a veil, mantle or train.

Guipure

Guipure is a dense lace with large patterns. The skin is visible through it and it blends perfectly with the open neckline to create an illusion effect.

Atlas

Satin is very soft to the touch, shiny fabric. It is ideal for dresses in Empire style or straight cut, because gently falling down, it perfectly emphasizes the silhouette of the bride.

Taffeta

Similar to the atlas, it is, however, more rigid and falls, drawing beautiful folds.

Tulle

This is a thin and voluminous fabric, which is often used for crinolines or dress skirts. Transparent and airy, it is filled with romanticism when it covers a dress and is combined with a veil from the same material.

Gaz

Almost transparent fabric with spaced threads, mainly used for veils, collars or dresses themselves. Long associated with tutus of classical ballerinas, today it is used to add volume to mating dresses.
