Lycra Fabrics

First developed by DuPont scientists in 1958 as an alternative to the rubber used in corsets, Lycra is a synthetic fibre known for its exceptional elasticity and is largely used in the manufacture of dance wear, sportswear including bicycle pants and ice skating costumes. Lycra Fabrics are a lightweight and breathable material known for its quick drying properties. Lycra can be stretched repeatedly and will return to almost exactly its original size making it ideal for dance wear costumes.

With a composition of 80% nylon and 20% spandex and 150cm wide, our top quality Lycra Fabrics collection is available in a variety of plain colours and eye catching patterns - whether you are creating a collection of stunning dance costumes for a big show or a pair of casual leggings for yourself, you will be able to Buy Lycra Fabric Online to meet any of your requirements.
