Features 5

• This fabric consists of 96% polyester, a synthetic fiber known for its durability and moisture-wicking properties, and 4% spandex (elastane), which provides slight stretch and flexibility. The metallic effect is typically created by applying a metallic foil coating or weaving in lurex (metallic) threads, giving the fabric a reflective, shiny finish.
• At 185 GSM (grams per square meter), this fabric is medium-weightheavier than lightweight fabrics like chiffon but lighter than thick upholstery materials. It offers a balanced structure and drape, making it durable yet flexible. With a wide 58/60-inch width, it provides more coverage per yard, making it ideal for projects that require larger cuts.
• This 96% polyester, 4% spandex metallic fabric has a 2-way stretch, meaning it stretches in one direction (usually horizontally) while maintaining stability in the other. The spandex content adds flexibility, allowing for a comfortable fit and ease of movement, while the polyester ensures durability and wrinkle resistance. This fabric makes it suitable for costumes, dancewear, leggings, cosplay, party outfits, stage wear, activewear, table decorations, backdrop curtains, fashion accessories, and DIY craft projects.
• Care instructions are important to ensure the fabric maintains its quality, durability, and appearance over time. Proper washing and drying help prevent shrinkage, stretching, or damage to the fibers, while avoiding bleach protects the fabric's color. Ironing at low temperatures helps smooth wrinkles without damaging the delicate fibers, ensuring the fabric stays soft and retains its stretch.
