Acetate velvet is a type of velvet fabric made with a semi-synthetic fiber derived from cellulose, most commonly from wood pulp. It is a man-made fiber, but because it originates from a natural source, it's often classified as a "semi-synthetic" or "man-made cellulosic" fiber. This unique composition gives acetate velvet a distinct set of characteristics that distinguish it from other velvet types like silk or polyester.

  • Lustrous Sheen and Luxurious Feel: Acetate is often called "artificial silk" because it has a beautiful, silky sheen and a soft, smooth hand that closely mimics natural silk. This makes acetate velvet a popular and more affordable alternative to true silk velvet, providing a very elegant and high-end appearance.
  • Excellent Drape: Acetate fibers are known for their superb drape, which means the fabric flows and hangs beautifully. This property makes acetate velvet ideal for garments and home decor where graceful, flowing lines are desired, such as evening gowns, curtains, and decorative throws.
  • Color Retention: Acetate has good dye affinity, which allows for rich, vibrant, and long-lasting colors. This makes it a great choice for home furnishings and apparel where colorfastness is important.
  • Delicate Nature: While it provides a luxurious aesthetic, acetate velvet is generally not as strong or durable as polyester velvet. It can be susceptible to permanent pile flattening from moisture (like water spills) and is not as resistant to abrasion.

Application: Evening wear, Gown, Suit, Jacket, Home Decor and more.
