Silk Organza

Silk Organza

There’s nothing like the beautiful, voluminous look of organza fabric, whether it’s a billowing bridal veil or puffing up stylish skirt.
Organza is thought to be named after the Italian word “organzino”, which means “fine silk twisted to increase its strength.” This fabric has an incredible ability to boost volume while simultaneously softening the silhouette.
With our exquisite organza fabric, you can add elegance and shimmer to any garment.

Manufacturer

This fabric is produced by manufacturer Ruffo Coli. Known as the “Italian Talent for Textiles,” this company dates back to the early 1930s in Tuscany. Bartolomeo Boasso from a wealthy family in Turin decided to open a fabric store called “La Comense,” which quickly became a local landmark.
The reason for the exceptional success of this luxury fabric producer is a passion for quality and creative innovation. These days, Ruffo Coli is still a benchmark for superior craftsmanship in the world of silk fabrics.

Design

This elegant sheer peach fabric imitates lace weave and has a sweet and timeless floral pattern. The white print has been applied with screen print technology, so it might feel a little rough on the face side, but the reverse side is soft and smooth. The fabric is lightweight, yet durable with a crisp feel.

Use/Application

Thanks to its ability to add shape and structure to skirts and veils, organza is often used in bridal wear and formal gowns.

Some types of organza can be washed by hand separately from clothes with zippers or bras with hooks. But the best option for silk organza is dry-cleaning. Never wring out your fabric too harshly as this can damage the texture. Lay out your organza garment flat to air dry and keep it away from direct heat.
