interlining
Fabric between layers
Interlining is fabric sewn between the outer layer and lining of a garment to add warmth, structure, or body.
A winter coat might have interlining for insulation; a suit jacket uses it to help the fabric hold its shape.
The verb interline means to add such a layer: The tailor interlined the collar for extra stiffness.
