Frequently Asked Questions | FAQs
What is sateen fabric ?
Sateen is a type of fabric that is characterized by its smooth, lustrous surface and a soft, silky hand feel. It is made from tightly woven, long-staple cotton fibers that are woven in a satin weave pattern, which gives the fabric its characteristic sheen. The satin weave pattern involves floating the weft yarn over several warp threads, resulting in a fabric that is smoother and has more drapability than other cotton weaves. Sateen fabric is often used for bed linens, such as sheets and pillowcases, as well as for clothing, including dresses, skirts, and jackets. It is prized for its luxurious feel and durability, as well as its ability to resist wrinkles and drapes beautifully.
