What is moire fabric?

Moire fabric is a type of textile that features a wavy, rippling pattern that is created through a process called calendaring, where the fabric is passed through heated rollers. The result is a fabric that has a vibrant, iridescent appearance and a distinctive texture. Moire fabrics are typically made from silk, but can also be made from other materials such as cotton or rayon. They are often used for formal wear, upholstery, and home decor. Moire fabrics can be found in a variety of colors and patterns, from classic stripes to bold prints, and are a popular choice for special occasions such as weddings and other formal events.
