Polyester taffeta is made to imitate silk taffeta, which is one of the oldest luxury fabrics in the world, dating to the third century when it was woven by Persian artisans. Applications using polyester taffeta run the gamut from high fashion to insulation.
Appearance
Polyester taffeta is fine, tightly-woven, and made in a plain, flat weave with approximately the same number of yarns in both directions. Taffeta can be soft or stiff, and either light or medium in weight. Polyester taffeta can come in a wide range of colors which include metallic hues, and has a lustrous surface.
Attributes
Polyester taffeta is naturally UV-resistant and has a low moisture retention rating, allowing moisture to dry rapidly. Polyester taffeta resists stretching and sagging. Polyester taffeta is often put through a moire finish, which gives the taffeta a wavy or rippled pattern which resembles the appearance of light through water.
Used In
Taffeta is used in evening dresses, ribbons, couture fashion, chiffon, georgette, umbrellas, and in the linings of academic hoods. Softer taffetas is often used in a variety of linings, and even sometimes in electrical insulation.
