Fashion & bridal wear
Silk organza has a firm place in the fashion industry, and has been used in the design of bridal wear and ball gowns for many years.
When it comes to bridal wear, the choice of fabric used can make or break the look and feel of the dress. Silk organza is a premium fabric which is a popular choice for brides-to-be, due to its lustrous sheen and soft, smooth texture.
The naturally crisp handle allows wedding dress designers to layer the fabric and create sculpted silhouettes. It can be used to create full, dramatic skirts or more subtle soft flowing skirts, along with traditional veils.
Not just for layering, silk organza offers the perfect transparent base for adding interest to a dress or gown in the form of embellishments and detailing.
Costumes
Much loved by costume designers, silk organza is a popular choice for creating elegant stage costumes, with its sheer texture offering a stunning sheen under stage lighting.
You’ll find silk organza used a lot to create full skirts and tutus for ballerinas to help create that dainty, light-as-a-feather appearance.
Home decor & decorations
Organza is one of the more decorative silk fabrics and is often used to add a touch of style, colour and flair to a home.
It’s a great way to add different textures to a room without overwhelming the space with patterns, by adding subtle, sheer full length curtains, table runners and occasionally even cushions.
Organza decorations also remain prevalent at events such as weddings and special receptions, often used to dress a room with elaborate bows, aisle runners, favours and wedding arches.
