Metro Lifestyle sells various Plisse fabric, like this Plisse Knitted Pleated Camel.
The term ‘plisse’ originates from the French words ‘FOLD’ or ‘PLEAT’ and it describes the crinkled appearance of the material. The pleats are typically irregular but generally run parallel. Although various fabrics can be manually pleated or folded to achieve a pleated look, ‘plisse’ traditionally refers to chemically treated fabric with a crinkled texture.
Knitted plisse is created by interlocking fabric yarns to form symmetrical loops known as blights. These blights provide knitted plisse fabric with increased elasticity.
Due to their visual appearance and elasticity, knitted plisse is sometimes mistaken for seersucker fabric. The distinction between the two lies in their manufacturing processes; while plisse fabric results from chemical treatment, seersuckers are woven from cotton.
Plisse fabric is primarily used in the clothing and fashion industry to create intricate designs in tuxedo shirts, skirts, lingerie, cardigans, T-shirts, dresses, and blouses.
Some haute couture fashion houses have even produced entire collections featuring plisse fabric, like the renowned Japanese designer Issey Miyake, who launched the ‘Pleats Please’ collection in 1993.
It’s important to handle plisse fabric with care as it is delicate and requires special attention to maintain its quality and pleated appearance.
