Silk, satin, velvet, brocade, lace - these is the names of refinement and imperial luxury. And how it could be otherwise in the day of the wedding you are an absolute Queen and the admired sights of guests and the groom are fixed only to you.

At a choice of a fabric for a dress do not forget to consider a number of details, for example, wedding ornaments should be combined with a dress, and the fabric should be picked up in view of a season that the dress was not too cold or, on the contrary, too warm.

Both at a choice of a fabric, and at purchase of a ready dress it is necessary to estimate the invoice of a matter. Different fabrics are differently draped, hold the form, have various density, and therefore suitable for a particular season and style. One materials rumple easily, others stretch, the third are flimsy.

Fabric can be shiny, reflecting light (satin, silk, taffeta, organdy), and dull (wet silk, velvet), a synthetic, natural or mixed.

Lets briefly review the most popular fabrics.

Satin - (in translation with Arabian - "smooth") - is a cloth that typically has a glossy surface and a dull back. The satin can be made of natural silk or or mixed fibers. Satin dress looks very elegant.

But fashion designers like to combine the satin with other fabrics with more dull surface and to decorate the attire an embroidery, a lace, feathers, beads, strass, creating more modern refined models.

Remember the satin is a very easy material. It isn't suitable for the cold season. Besides the attire made of a natural material, more rumple.

Silk - one of the most expensive materials, it is called "pearl of fabrics". Silk has shining, very smooth surface. This fabric appreciate not only beauty, but also for durability. Among disadvantages of 100%'s silk we'll note, that it rumples very easy as well as all natural fabrics.

Justly it is said "Smooth as silk".

The dress should be ideally suited on a figure that a shoulder-straps or its other details did not slip during the most responsible moment.

Please note that like all fabrics with a shining surface silk make you little in flesh that will be particularly visibly on a wedding photos.

Crape - an Anglicized version of the Fr. crêpe - is a silk fabric of a gauzy texture, having a pecliar crisp or crimpy appearance.

If you choose a style silhouette with streamy skirt as a matter to you will approach a crape.

A texture may vary, both heavy, and easy, the matter can be made both of natural silk fibres, and artificial.

An advantage of this fabric is that it is practically non-creasing and very suitable for many styles. It is are easily decorated, such as lace, and combined with many ornaments. Mostly for wedding dresses used crape with smooth surface.

Brocade as also as Crape is a variety of the fabric containing silk fibers.

In the Middle Ages the structure of brocade included pure gold and silver, so the cloth was one of the most expensive.

Today, certainly, technology changed, but the matter has not lost former shine. Brocade of gold, silver and other colors is an extremely actual material for wedding celebration.

Brocade dresses are looked magnificently and originally. They will be right for wedding in a cold season perfectly, as the fabric is quite dense and heavy.

Sateen has smooth, silky front surface, differs durability and is also used for sewing wedding dresses.

This fabric manufactured from cotton or synthetic fibres, depending on the invoice it can be matt or more shining.

Organza comes matt or shining.

Organza is coarse as starched to the touch. It keeps its form so often is used for magnificent sleeves, frills, flounces, stand-up collars and petticoats.

Taffeta (formerly sometimes spelled taffety) is a crisp, smooth woven fabric made from silk or synthetic fibers. The word is Persian in origin, and means "twisted woven".

Taffeta is a very popular fabric among today's brides.

It has a smooth, shiny surface.

Taffeta dresses are usually decorate%u0432 by silk net, lace, flowers, bugles or beads.

Dress of taffeta will be suite for any season.

Velvet is a type of tufted fabric in which the cut threads are very evenly distributed, with a short dense pile, giving it its distinct feel. Velvet can be made from many different kinds of fibres. It is woven on a special loom that weaves two pieces of velvet at the same time. The two pieces are then cut apart and the two lengths of fabric are wound on separate take-up rolls.

Wedding dress of velvet is especially glamourous. The fabric is more popular for evening dresses, but for winter wedding this heavy material with a fleecy brilliant surface approaches ideally as will not allow you to freeze.

This fabric looks very nobly, so show preference for the simple style not overworked with decorative elements.

In conclusion I would like to say about fabric which has long been taken to decorate the most exquisite dresses.

Lace is a lightweight, openwork fabric, patterned with open holes in the work, made by machine or by hand. The holes can be formed via removal of threads or cloth from a previously woven fabric, but more often open spaces are created as part of the lace fabric.

Earlier a lace was tatted manually. Therefore it costed very dearly. The first laces have appeared in Italy at 15-16 centuries.

In spite of the fact that manufacture of this fabric with an ornament is put on a stream for a long time handmade lace still especially is worth its weight in gold.

Corsets, skirts, sleeves, cuffs, a veil are decorated with lace.
