Qiana dress

Description

[DuPont] A former registered trademark for a silk-like nylon fabric composed of PACM-12 fibers. Qiana was first introduced in 1968. However, that fiber is no longer produced and the name is currently used at DuPont for a certification mark for any fabrics reaching a set standard. Qiana fabric had the look and feel of Silk but could be machine washed. It was resistant to abrasion and most chemicals.
