Jacquard stretch fabric is a type of fabric that has complex patterns woven into it using special jacquard controls on a knitting machine. It can be made of any yarn, but usually contains some elastic fibers such as spandex or nylon to give it more stretch and flexibility. Jacquard stretch fabric is often used for clothing, upholstery, and home decor items because of its rich texture and reversible design.
One example of jacquard stretch fabric is a blend of 18% spandex and 82% nylon that comes in white and black colors. This fabric has a weight of 180 grams per square meter (gsm) and a width of 150 centimeters (cm). It features a geometric pattern of circles and squares that creates a contrast between the two colors. This fabric is suitable for making activewear, swimwear, leggings, dresses, and skirts. It has a soft hand feel, a smooth surface, and a good recovery after stretching.
