Chiffon A very thin, almost transparent cloth of silk or nylon. Woven of alternate S and Z-twist yarns, which gives it some stretch and a slightly rough feel. Chiffon is most commonly used in evening wear, especially as an overlay, for giving an elegant and floating appearance to the gown. It is also a popular fabric used in blouses, ribbons, scarves and lingerie. |
