Sequin Fabric

Sequin fabric is a type of textile embellished with small, shiny discs, known as sequins, which are often made from plastic or metal. These sequins reflect light, giving the fabric a glamorous and eye-catching appearance. Sequin fabrics come in a variety of colors, sizes, and shapes, and they can be sewn onto a sheer base or directly onto solid fabrics.

The base texture of sequin fabric can vary widely; it may be made from materials such as polyester, silk, or cotton, allowing for different levels of drape and shine. Sequin fabrics are commonly used in evening wear, dance costumes, theatrical costumes, and accessories. They can add sparkle to garments and can be used for everything from dresses and tops to shoes and handbags.

When working with sequin fabric, it’s important to consider that the sequins can add weight and may require special handling during sewing to avoid damaging the sequins or the underlying material. Overall, sequin fabric is synonymous with celebration and festivity, often associated with parties, performances, and other special occasions.
