Choosing Your Right Fabric of Prom Dresses

Choosing a prom dress can be a daunting process. Some fabrics may appeal to you right away. Knowing that different fabrics drape would be better than others and look better on different shapes. Many prom gowns are a combination of a couple fabrics, the most popular prom gown materials are following kinds.
Organza: Feels much like silk, but is light weight due to the blend of silk, polyester and nylon that comprise the fabric. Organza falls nicely and works well for long dresses as it creates a nice line when it drapes.

 

Satin:Satin is not as durable as silk and when the fibers are mixed with cotton, the fabric is called sateen and is a lighter soft fabric.

 

Chiffon: Chiffon makes a beautiful statement and flows nicely over the body. Often used in layers for prom dresses, chiffon creates a sugary sweet look. Chiffon is shimmery and looks like closely woven netting when looked at closely. Iridescent chiffon makes any girl look like a gem.

 

Tulle:Tulle is the material that tutus are made of. It is a net like fabric often used in layers under a prom dress to add bulk.
