Frequently Asked Questions
What is stretch velvet spandex?
It is a plush four-way stretch knit with a soft velvet pile, ideal for dance costumes, eveningwear, gowns and skating dresses.
What is the difference between crushed and plain velvet?
Plain velvet has a smooth, uniform pile. Crushed velvet is textured with a pressed, light-catching finish for extra dimension.
How do you sew stretch velvet?
Use a ballpoint or stretch needle and a walking foot to prevent shifting, and cut with the nap running in one direction for consistent color.
Can velvet spandex be washed?
Hand wash cold with mild detergent, do not wring, and lay flat to dry. Avoid ironing the pile directly.
Do you offer velvet wholesale?
Yes. Plain, crushed, glitter, foil and printed stretch velvets are available by the yard at retail and wholesale.
