Description

A lightweight, soft fabric with a finely crinkled surface. Crepe is made of Silk, rayon, Cotton, Wool, or synthetic fibers. The crinkled surface is made by either using twisted filling yarns, chemical treatment (Sodium hydroxide), or a crepe weave. Crepe de Chine is a very lightweight silk crepe and Canton crepe is a heavier silk or rayon fabric. Crepe is used for dresses, blouses, undergarments, kimonos, and sleeping garments.
