DETAILED DESCRIPTION
Viscose-spandex
Belonging to the Viscose jersey group, Viscose-spandex is an elastic, silky-feel knitted fabric that combines the natural comfort of viscose with the elasticity of elastane. The soft drape, excellent breathability and skin-friendly property characteristic of the category are complemented in this material with shape-retaining stretch, making it an ideal choice for making body-following and comfortable garments.
Composition and structural characteristics
Viscose-spandex is a knitted textile made from 95% viscose and 5% elastane (spandex). Viscose is a cellulose-based fibre that provides a soft, smooth surface and good moisture absorption, while elastane makes the material more elastic, allowing for comfortable movement and a better fit to the body. The looped structure characteristic of the Viscose jersey category provides the material's natural stretch and soft, flowing drape.
With a weight of 235 g/m², this material belongs among the slightly heavier-than-medium jerseys, providing better opacity and body without losing its characteristic softness. The 170 cm width allows for economical cutting for various apparel projects.
Material properties and behaviour
The cooling sensation and excellent breathability characteristic of Viscose jersey base materials also appear in this variant, making it particularly suitable for apparel worn in warmer weather conditions. The silky surface provides a pleasant touch on the skin, so it can also be a suitable choice for those with sensitive skin.
Thanks to the elastane content, the material stretches well and regains its original shape, which contributes to the durability and aesthetic appearance of garments. Due to the knitted structure, the material follows the body's lines while not restricting movement.
Applications
Viscose-spandex can be widely used in various areas of fashion and comfort apparel. The light drape and elastic structure make it ideal for making flowing summer dresses, tunics, T-shirts, tops and comfortable trousers in both women's and men's fashion. For more durable, everyday T-shirts, stretch cotton jersey gives a more hard-wearing base.
For nightwear, it is an excellent choice for silky-feel nightgowns and pyjamas. As underwear, it can be used as a base material for skin-friendly, elastic underwear and vests. For children's clothing, it is ideal for soft undershirts, trousers and baby clothes, while for leisure use it is also suitable for making yoga tops and comfortable lounge sets. The same cooling, summery character in a woven version belongs to linen fabrics.
