Organza

Organza is a thin, crisp, sheer fabric with a slightly shiny surface. It holds volume and shape without weight, so it is widely used for structure and decoration.

Designers use organza for lehenga panels, dupattas, sleeves, gowns, saree borders and decorative overlays.

Check how stiff the organza is and whether it has a metallic or satin sheen. For skirts and sleeves, a crisper type gives more volume, while a softer type drapes more.

Sheer fabrics are best hand-washed or machine-washed in a mesh bag on a gentle cycle, then dried flat. Press with a cool iron on the reverse, and use fine needles and a small stitch length when sewing.

Organza is usually silk or synthetic and has a slight sheen. Organdy is a crisp cotton with a matte finish and tends to wrinkle more. See our organdy collection.
