Viscose Metallic Jacquard

Metallic and jacquard textures are especially sensitive to screen calibration and lighting, more than flat colours. Ordering the Swatch option first lets you see the real fabric under real light — the most reliable way to judge it before committing to yardage.

Dye lots and metallic weaving can shift slightly between production batches, which is standard across jacquard manufacturing generally. If matching across a large or repeat order matters, ordering your full estimated quantity in one purchase, or requesting a current swatch to confirm the batch, is the safest approach.

It handles similarly to other structured jacquards — a sharp, medium-weight needle and a slightly longer stitch length help prevent snagging on the raised motif. Testing tension and stitch length on a swatch first, as covered in the care guide, gives the cleanest results.

The raised metallic jacquard motif is designed to catch and reflect light with more dimension than a flat metallic print, which generally photographs well under warm event or stage lighting. Very harsh direct flash can sometimes flatten texture in photos, which is a general photography consideration rather than something specific to this fabric.

All six patterns share the same black base and are produced as part of one fabric family, so the ground colour is intended to be consistent. As with any dyed fabric, very slight batch-to-batch variation is possible, which is why ordering a swatch first is recommended if exact colour matching across designs matters for your project.

It can work well for abaya panels, trims, or structured statement pieces, given its opacity and body, though its 200 GSM weight and structure make it better suited to accent panels or fitted sections rather than a full lightweight flowing abaya.

Like most woven jacquards, cut edges will fray with handling over time, so finishing seams with an overlock, French seam, or zigzag stitch during construction is worth doing, the same as with any structured woven fabric.

Because fabric is cut to your exact requested length, cut yardage generally can't be returned for a simple change of mind once shipped — that's standard for made-to-order fabric, not unique to this listing. It can be returned if it arrives damaged, defective, or different from what was described. This is exactly why ordering the Swatch first is worth doing before committing to full yardage — see our Refund Policy for full details.

The structured jacquard weave resists deep creasing better than very lightweight or sheer fabrics, and a low-heat iron on the reverse side with a pressing cloth releases most wrinkles, as noted in the care guide.

The wholesale minimum is 23 metres, and production is run to consistent specification for weight, motif, and finish. As with any fabric, ordering a swatch before committing to your full production run is the best way to confirm the batch meets your standard — choose Wholesale and enter your required meters for a custom quote.
