So on that note, let's look at properties of fabric. The video you're about to watch is a preview from one of my fashion design courses available online on Fashion Premier Academy. Roll it. When we look at some basic properties of fabric, there are certain features which we have to consider, such as, weight W E I G HT.

Refers to the thickness, the weight, how light or heavy is it? A top weight or a lightweight, for example, is suitable for blouses, um, whereas a bottom weight would be used for pan. Or coats or dresses and so on. The next is drape, which means how does it drape, how does it hang, how does it move? Is it fluid or is it stiff?

Does it have liquid like properties, silk, chiffon, rayon, satin fabrics are some of the. Fabrics that drape really nicely. Next is durability. In simple terms, it just means will it last a long time? How long will this garment last before it's worn out and must be thrown away. Next we have softness, fabric.

Next is construction or structure can be as simple as, is it knit or is it woven? But it also refers to the density of the yarns. In the warp and the west direction. The tighter the weave, the more yarns you will use and the more expensive the fabric.

And lastly, breathability is the ability of the fabric to permit water vapor to pass through and allow air to circulate through the weave of the fabric. ' That's It?
