Stretch Fabric Frequently Asked Questions

What are the benefits of jersey stretch fabric?

Jersey stretch fabric offers several benefits. Firstly, it provides a great degree of flexibility, which allows for comfortable movement and freedom. Secondly, it has excellent draping capabilities, meaning it conforms to the body's shape and creates a flattering fit. Additionally, jersey stretch fabric is breathable, making it suitable for activewear and garments that need to provide ventilation.

How is jersey stretch fabric different from regular jersey fabric?

The main difference between jersey stretch fabric and regular jersey fabric lies in its stretchability. While regular jersey fabric may have some stretch, jersey stretch fabric is specifically designed to have a higher elasticity. This makes it more suitable for garments that require a greater range of motion or a body-hugging fit.

How do I care for garments made from jersey stretch fabric?

Garments made from jersey stretch fabric are relatively easy to care for. It is recommended to wash them in cool water and on a gentle cycle, using mild detergent. Avoid using bleach or harsh chemicals, as they can damage the fabric. Jersey stretch fabric usually dries quickly, so it is best to air-dry or tumble-dry on low heat. Additionally, it is advisable to store jersey stretch garments flat or folded to prevent stretching or distortion.
