How To Maintain Velvet Fabric

What fabric is velvet fabric?
The velvet fabric is made of armor-grade raw silk, which is also made of silk, and the cotton yarn is weft-interlaced, with silk or rayon pile loops. Both warp and weft are first degummed or semi-degummed, dyed, and weaved after twisting. Depending on the application, different materials can be used for weaving. In addition to the silk and rayon mentioned above, we can also weave different materials such as cotton, eye, viscose, polyester and nylon. So the velvet fabric is not really woven with velvet, but its feel and texture are as smooth and shiny as velvet.
How to maintain velvet fabric
1. When using velvet fabric, try to reduce the friction as much as possible, and pull it hard. Always keep changing.
2. The velvet fabric is suitable for washing and is not suitable for dry cleaning.
3. Velvet fabrics require medium-temperature ironing when ironing. Use less push-pull when ironing, so that the garments are naturally stretched and aligned.
4. The velvet fabric is very hygroscopic, so it should be protected from high temperature, high humidity and unclean environment when it is stored. It should be placed in a clean and tidy environment to prevent mildew.
