How Scuba Crepe Fabric Supports Structured Apparel Design

Scuba crepe material is a unique fabric 

That is great for the creation of garments that require control such as structured skirts, it has a natural stretch quality. It is thick and stretchy, so it’s comfortable yet it’s also sturdy enough to form structured designs. At Xingye Textile, we’ve watched designers create beautiful, trendy clothes using scuba cloth crepe; they look sharp, and tailored. 

Using scuba crepe material for tailored pieces 

Scuba crepe material is perfect for sewing garments that require a clean, tailored appearance. It has a very smooth hand and keeps its shape, which works great for straight skirts or form fitting jackets. And when it’s your wedding and you’re the one wearing it, the dress, in bright white, won’t wrinkle, wilt, sag or slide. That makes it a favorite for designers whose clothes are meant to look sharp and well groomed. 

Flexibility of scuba crepe: Fitted designs explained 

Scuba crepe can be used beyond just garments that are straight and that hold their shape. It’s also really versatile and can be applied designing closer-fitted garments that nicely hug the body. For example, a fitted dress or pair of slim pants in scuba crepe can be very forgiving. The material stretches only so far and will conform to a body but not turn into a sausage casing on you and yet maintains those clean lines that make an outfit feel pulled together. 

Compound structure of apparel with scuba crepe-grade material 

And one of the reasons scuba crepe is the best is how it infuses structure into the garment. It has a nice texture which gives enough heft to the material to wear it without adding too much bulk. In other words, designers are free to make pieces that sport interesting shapes and details that don’t get lost in the crowd. A peplum top in scuba crepe clothing fabric, for instance, may be dreamily fitted with a flared shape that stays put all day long. 

The good properties of scuba crepe: Hold shapewear insulated for a firm body control 

It’s scuba crepe, which holds its shape very well. This is super important when creating structured designs and every line and curve needs to be just right. Garments snugged together with that scuba crepe don’t stretch out or shrink, and as a result they always fit the same way, wear after wear. Which is what makes it a trustworthy fabric for the things you plan to keep in your closet for years to come.
