Imported fabric is a type of fabric covered with plastic or metal shaped pieces. It is also commonly referred to as ‘sequence fabric’, though the only correct term is ‘sequin’. Imported vary in size, shape and color. They can be glossy or matt, reversible or one-side. The most popular backing fabrics include tulle or chiffon.

What makes importedfabrics so hot? They look ultramodern and stylish no matter what you sew them into: a boxy top, a pair of cigarette pants or a chic jacket. Designers use two variations: all-over sequin embroideries (which can get quite heavy!) and random imported stitched on tulle, lace, silk and more. These shiny pieces can accentuate some areas or outline the entire pattern of the fabric.

Importednet fabrics are hard to pass by. They are so dazzling and tempting even when they just lay on store shelves rolled up in bolts! How to choose the most suitable sequin material for your project? Let’s zoom in on the various types one can find online:

Backing	Transparency	Stretch
Tulle or mesh	See-through	Usually there’s a slight stretch
Chiffon	See-through	No stretch
Organza	See-through	No stretch
Knit fabric	Either opaque or translucent	Stretchy
Lace	Sheer or semi-sheer	Stretch or no stretch
Wool	Opaque	Stretch or no stretch

Another way to categorize sequin fabrics is by the shape of the sequin. Originally, all imported were round and looked like coins (in fact, the term comes from the Arabic word ‘sikka’ which stands for ‘coin’). Women attached them to their skirts, dresses and blouses as a symbol of wealth. Nowadays, you’ll be amazed by the variety of shapes available on the market. Modern imported are usually made of plastic, and there are literally dozens of geometrical shapes to choose from:

1. circle, or round
2. square
3. rectangular
4. flowers
5. stars
6. snowflakes
7. polygon
8. oval, etc.

Imported are an ideal adornment that fits many purposes. From evening wear and glamorous dresses to purses, shoes and home décor, there’s a thousand ways to use them. Such fabrics are often chosen for dancewear because of their flash appearance. If imported are stitched onto the knit backing, one can make bodycon pieces, but if they sit on chiffon or organza fabrics, loose and boxy silhouettes are the best fit.
