Cloqué
Cloqué is a textured woven fabric characterized by its raised patterns, typically made from silk or polyester, offering a luxurious appearance and feel.
About Cloqué
Cloqué fabric is a jacquard-woven textile known for its unique, puckered surface that creates a three-dimensional effect. This texture is achieved through the use of a special weaving technique that interlaces threads in a way that allows certain areas to be raised while others remain flat. Cloqué is often made from silk or polyester, providing a blend of softness and durability. It is commonly used in high-end fashion for garments such as dresses, blouses, and evening wear, as well as in upholstery and home decor.
