Satin

A float-based weave that produces a smooth, directional sheen on one or both faces. It reads as light and fluid, which makes it useful for linings, panels and statement silhouettes. Face, backing and weight are confirmed on swatch, since satin behaves very differently depending on the fibre behind the shine.
