Georgette is a type of crepe fabric that is typically made from pure silk but can also be made from synthetic fibres like rayon, viscose, and polyester. The silk fabric is sheer and lightweight and has a dull, matte finish. Crepe Georgette is woven using tightly twisted yarns, which create a slight crinkle effect on the surface. Silk Georgette is very similar to silk chiffon, which is also a type of crepe fabric, but Georgette not as sheer as chiffon because of the tighter weave. Georgette fabrics are sometimes sold in solid colours, but georgette can be printed and often boasts colourful floral prints.
