Chiffon Bridal Fabric is a popular choice for weddings

In the past few years, we have noticed that chiffon Bridal Fabric has become a popular choice for brides. Chiffon fabric gives a dress a soft, flowing look. It is an ideal fabric if a bride wants a lightweight dress and is perfect for destination wedding gowns in hot countries.

Use chiffon with other Bridal Fabrics

If you are looking to create a full skirt, you can use chiffon in multiple layers. This will create volume without becoming heavy. As well as being used on its own, Chiffon can be sewn over the top of another fabric to soften the look of a structured fabric such as satin back crepe. Chiffon Bridal Fabric can also be utilised to create sleeves or a see-through neckline on a satin or crepe gown. This will give a number of different textures on the dress; creating an interesting aesthetic.

A fashionable style of bridesmaid dress is the long maxi dress. Chiffon Bridal Fabric is the perfect fabric for this. Here at Calico Laine, we stock cationic chiffon in over 30 colours.
