🧵 What is Natural Crepe Fabric?

Crepe refers to the texture of the fabric, not the fiber itself. Natural crepe is made from natural fibers, such as:

  • Silk crepe – the most luxurious and commonly known form.

  • Wool crepe – warmer, with more body and resilience.

  • Cotton crepe – breathable, light, and slightly crisp.

  • Rayon/viscose crepe – a semi-natural fiber, often blended for affordability.

🧶 How Is the Texture Created?

  • Twisted Yarns: The crinkled texture is achieved by tightly twisting the yarns in both warp and weft directions before weaving.

  • Heat/Water Treatments: In some types, the fabric is treated after weaving to enhance the crepe effect.
