Jacquard

Jacquard Fabrics

Jacquard fabric is a type of fabric woven on a Jacquard loom, a machine loom invented by the French textile artisan Joseph Marie Jacquard in 1804. Fabrics woven with this type of loom feature complex patterns woven directly into the fabric. As a result, any fabric with woven patterns bears resemblance to jacquard, but technically speaking, only fabrics woven with Jacquard looms can be considered genuine examples of this fabric.

  • Durability: Cotton is a naturally strong fiber, and jacquard weaving techniques create a robust fabric that can last for years.
  • Breathability: Cotton allows air to circulate, keeping you cool and comfortable.
  • Softness: The natural fibers of cotton provide a soft and gentle feel against the skin.
  • Wrinkle resistance: Depending on the specific weave, jacquard cotton can have varying degrees of wrinkle resistance. Some lighter weight fabrics may wrinkle more easily than heavier ones.
  • Care: Cotton jacquard fabrics typically require gentle washing and ironing, following the specific care instructions on the garment tag.
