SILK TWILL FABRIC

Aug 08, 2022

Twill, one of the three basic textile weaves, producing a fabric with a diagonal rib, ridge, or wale.  In regular twill the diagonal line is repeated regularly, usually running upward from left to right at a 45° angle.
The weave can be varied in many ways, for example, by changing the direction of the twill line (as in herringbone twill) or its angle. The smallest twill is one of the most popular weaves in men’s wear.

Silk twill is heavier than china silk, but is lightweight enough to use for summer clothing or delicate wear.  What makes silk twill a great choice is its characteristic weave, which provides more durability and opacity than china silk. If you need to line white summer pants, try silk twill. 


Digital Printing silk Twill Fabric:

100% silk twill is the most hard-wearing of silk fabrics.


A light to medium weight fabric, silk twill has a pronounced 2/2 twill structure that adds an extra dimension to designs or images that are printed onto it.


The structured matt surface of the fabric lends very well to our digital printing techniques, and our high quality silk fabric base means that bright, vivid and strong colours are easily achievable.


Silk twill is the ideal fabric for achieving single-sided effect prints and a great base for apparel items such as shirts, dresses and skirts. It is also a very popular choice of fabric bases for printed scarves and headscarves, where the surface effect of the fabric brings added interest to the printed designs.


The weight and structure of the fabric also make it a favourite choice for our printed ties, allowing crisp sharp prints of your logo, company brand or designs.
