About satin fabric

Satin is defined by its weave rather than its fibre: long yarns float over the surface, giving a smooth, glossy face and a duller back. It drapes fluidly and feels cool to the touch. Fabrics here include polyester, Korean, Habutai and cotton satins, plus stretch satins with lycra.

How to choose

Decide between a high-sheen and a matte satin, and check whether you need stretch. Stretch satins suit fitted garments, while non-stretch types are better for gowns and linings.

Range, uses and pricing

The range has 600+ designs. Prices start from ₹250 per metre. Common uses include satin for gowns, blouses, night suits, linings, jumpsuits, scarves and festive wear. Many designs are sold in a range of colours, so you can match a full collection. Fabrics are sold by the metre, and most are 150 cm wide.

Care and sewing tips

Most polyester-based fabrics wash well at low temperatures and dry quickly. Use a cool iron on the reverse and test a small swatch first, because finishes and prints vary between designs.
