Product Details
Poplin is a softer plain weave cotton fabric with very fine horizontal “ribs” that results in a strong, crisp fabric with a silky, lustrous surface. It is a popular choice over the regular polycotton and its cousin; milky way. Poplin is used for a wide range of garments, from dresses and skirts to blouses and dress shirts. Its durability and wrinkle resistance make it a popular choice for formal garments, while its lightweight texture makes it comfortable for casual garments.
Cotton poplin is a popular textile choice for clothing because of its soft texture, durability, and breathability. However, it requires proper care to maintain its quality over time.
Here are five tips on how to care for cotton poplin apparel textiles:
- Machine wash in cold water: Cotton poplin garments should be washed in cold water to prevent shrinking and color fading. Use a mild detergent and avoid using bleach or fabric softeners, as they can damage the fabric.
- Hang or lay flat to dry: After washing, avoid using a dryer and instead hang or lay the garment flat to dry. This will help maintain its shape and prevent shrinkage.
- Iron on low heat: Cotton poplin can wrinkle easily, so ironing is often necessary. However, use a low heat setting to prevent scorching or burning the fabric.
- Store in a cool, dry place: To prevent mildew and moisture damage, store cotton poplin garments in a cool, dry place. Avoid storing them in plastic bags or containers, as they can trap moisture and cause damage.
- Handle with care: Cotton poplin is a delicate fabric, so handle it with care. Avoid rubbing or pulling the fabric, as this can cause damage or pilling. Instead, gently dab or blot any stains or spills with a damp cloth.
