luxury fabrics

High-end cloth materials

Luxury fabrics are textiles prized for their exceptional quality, rarity, or feel against the skin.

The category includes silk, cashmere, vicuña, fine linen, and certain high-thread-count cottons.

What qualifies as luxury shifts with availability and fashion—velvet was once reserved for royalty.

The designer sources luxury fabrics from Italian mills.
