Organza 40gsm

Clearance Organza 40gsm

Crisp, lightweight and sheer plain weave fabric.

Organza is a popular fabric for a wide range of homeware and clothing items. Its transparency and high breathability make it perfect for overlaying thicker textiles. It is a great choice for draping as it looks sheer but is very strong. It is easy to manipulate and structure due to its plain weave.

The fabric is extremely thin as the yarns are twisted very tightly before weaving and woven with the intent of creating transparency.

The base colour is a shimmery white and designs are printed using dye sublimation. This results in bright colour reproduction that is long lasting and wash fast.
