Use - Suit fabric
Suiting fabric stands for a look that is immediately clear, high-quality, and precise. Many designers choose these qualities because they hold their shape, drape cleanly, and still look well-groomed even after long wear. Here you will find fabrics ranging from classic to modern, with a smooth surface, fine texture, or subtle pattern. (More...)
In the suit fabric category, you will mainly find woven qualities with a stable structure and elegant drape. Common fabric types are pure wool, wool blends, wool with elastane, flannel, gabardine, twill, fresco, worsted qualities as well as blends with viscose or polyester for additional durability. Depending on weight and weave, suiting fabrics are suitable for year-round models, light summer qualities, or warmer variants with more grip.
Typical fabric types:
• Pure wool, worsted, wool blends
• Wool with elastane
• Flannel
• Gabardine, twill
• Fresco
• Wool-viscose blends
• Wool-polyester blends
Important characteristics:
Suit fabrics are usually dimensionally stable, crease-resistant, and have a clean drape. High-quality types offer an elegant surface, good resilience, and comfortable wear, with more elasticity depending on the blend. Fine structures and classic designs like pinstripes or checks appear professional without being loud.
Care instructions:
Many suit fabrics should be treated gently and aired out rather than frequently washed. Generally, dry cleaning is the safest choice, especially for wool qualities. Iron with steam and a cloth, not too hot, so the surface does not shine, and always follow the care instructions for each fabric.
