 Comfortable Fabric favorites
Natural Fibers are great for comfortable and cozy loungewear.
Try these favorites listed below for your next at-home loungewear project!

Cotton: Although cotton is soft and breathable, it’s also a natural fiber
which means it absorbs moisture. So sit back, relax and try not to
break a sweat in your favorite tee! Cotton is also durable and very
easy to maintain.

Silk: If you plan to stay at home for a more intimate evening, a sexy
silk ensemble will definitely do the trick! Silk can be expensive and
it can also be hard to maintain. Special care instructions are not to
be ignored. One thing is for sure, you’re guaranteed to look as
amazing as you feel!

Linen: When it comes to style and comfort, linen is a stay-at-home

must have! Also a natural fiber, linen is light, airy and keeps you
cool in the warmer months. A beautiful linen
garment can have you feeling like
you’re on an extended
resort stay!

 Swim-wear Fabric Favorites
When choosing a good swim-wear fabric, you want one that is
durable and breathable. You’ll also want to make sure that it
performs as well in water as it does on land! Having 4-way stretch
will also help you feel fit and fabulous no matter your style and
preference. Some swim-wear fabrics now include 50+ UV
protection and Aloe Vera for protecting and hydrating the skin.
Try one of these swim approved favorites for your next project!

Tricot: Although tricot is very thin, it’s also very durable with a very
good amount of stretch. It’s perfect for swim-wear and is often used
for undergarments and active-wear.

neoprene: Neoprene, also known as scuba knit, tends to be a bit

thicker than most swim-wear applications. However, it’s very
durable with lots of stretch making it a great option for water sports.

Nylon spandex: A light weight nylon spandex is perfect for a day full
of Summer fun! Most spandex fabrics have an incredible 4-way
stretch which is great for swim-wear and warm weather activites.
Nylon is also very breathable making it a great option for keeping
you cool in the warmer months.
