Collection: Tissus moirés

Texture and Feel

Most moire finishes are applied to silk, taffeta, or blends with a firm structure. Moire silk fabric feels cool, slightly crisp, and polished against the skin. It does not cling and keeps its shape well, making it comfortable for lined garments, formal wear, and decorative items. 

Uses and Applications

Designers choose moire fabric for evening dresses, coats, ribbons, and ceremonial clothing. Moire fabric is common in sashes, chair covers, drapery accents, and gift packaging. The fabric holds pleats neatly and reflects light in an elegant way, which explains its long history in couture and interior design.

Care and Handling

Moire reacts poorly to water and steam, which may flatten the pattern. Dry cleaning is usually the safest option. Store folded loosely to avoid permanent creases. Pressing should be done carefully, on the reverse side, and with low heat.

Why Choose Moire

Fabric moire offers visual interest without heavy decoration. It suits projects where structure, sheen, and subtle pattern matter more than softness. Buyers value its durability, classic look, and ability to elevate simple designs.
