Crepe fabric

What is in this crepe fabric collection?

The range falls into six groups, so you can narrow it down quickly:

  • Printed crepe: Digital Print Crepe Fabric and Floral Printed Crepe Fabric, for designs where the print does the work.
  • Viscose crepe: Digital Print Viscose Crepe Fabric, with the fibre named right in the product title.
  • Crepe satin: Digital Print Crepe Satin Fabric and Digital Print Satin Crepe Fabric.
  • Zari and sequins work: Zari Sequins Embroidered, Cut Dana Zari Sequins Work and Digital Print Thread Sequins Work crepe fabrics.
  • Positional print embroidery: Positional Print Zari Sequins Embroidered Crepe Fabric and a faux mirror embroidered version.
  • Dyeable crepe: Dyeable Zari Work, Dyeable Zari Sequins Embroidered and Dyeable Cut Dana Zari Sequins Work designs, for buyers who want to decide the final colour.

Crepe material: texture, fibre and print

Crepe describes a crinkled, slightly pebbled surface texture, not one specific fibre. That is why two crepe fabrics can differ in feel, weight and drape. Before ordering, check the fibre, width and weight details on the product page, particularly for a fitted blouse or a flowing dress.

Digital printing carries detailed, multicolour artwork such as florals, while the embellished designs add zari, sequins, cut dana or faux mirror work on top of the crepe base. In practice, that separates a print-led everyday fabric from a festive one.

Occasions and styling ideas

Print-led crepe is the practical choice for everyday kurtis, suits and dresses. Embroidered and sequins work designs suit festive outfits, lehengas and blouses better.

For a festive set, use the heavily worked crepe for the kurti or blouse and keep the bottom and dupatta plain, so the embroidery stays the focus. Since many designs here are digital prints, zoom into the product images to see how the print is laid out before you plan the cut. Boutique designers and custom tailors can browse the same range for one-off pieces and made-to-measure orders.

How to choose the right crepe fabric

  • For everyday wear: start with Digital Print Crepe or Floral Printed Crepe.
  • For festive outfits: look at the zari sequins, cut dana and faux mirror embroidered designs.
  • For a colour of your own: pick from the dyeable designs.
  • For warm weather: check the fibre first, since crepe is a texture and not a fibre, so comfort depends on what the fabric is made of.
  • For a set budget: compare the price per metre of print-only and embellished designs side by side.

E. FAQs

1. What is crepe cloth, and what kind of fabric is it?
Crepe is a fabric with a crinkled, slightly pebbled surface texture. The term describes the texture rather than one fibre, so crepe can vary in feel and weight. This collection includes digital print crepe, viscose crepe, crepe satin and embroidered crepe fabrics, sold by the metre.

2. Is crepe 100% cotton?
Not by default. Crepe refers to the crinkled texture, so the fibre can differ from one fabric to another. Some listings here name the fibre in the title, such as Viscose Crepe. For any other design, check the fibre details on the product page before ordering.

3. Is crepe fabric better than cotton?
Neither is better for everything. Cotton is a fibre, while crepe is a texture, so the answer depends on what the specific crepe fabric is made of. Compare the fibre, width and weight on the product page, and choose by garment and occasion, whether that is an everyday kurti or a festive blouse.

4. Is crepe fabric good for summer?
That depends on the fibre and weight of the specific fabric, since crepe describes texture rather than material. For a summer dress or kurti, check the fibre details on the product page first, then compare print-only designs with embellished ones.

5. Is crepe fabric expensive?
Price varies by design, so there is no single answer. Each product page shows its own price, and you can compare print-only designs with embellished ones, such as zari, sequins, cut dana or faux mirror work, to see what fits your budget for a garment.
