Cotton- Cotton is used to create a variety of fabrics. Cotton can be woven or knitted. Anything that is 100% cotton is usually woven, lightweight and breathable (most suitable for Spring/Summer). Cotton fabric may be blended with polyester/spandex to add a little stretch. Products that are 100% cotton will shrink slightly, while products made of a cotton blend will shrink less.
Rayon- Rayon has a smooth, comfortable texture, that feels soft to the touch. Similar feel to cotton and can be lightweight and breathable. Rayon can be blended with a small amount of spandex to provide some elasticity. Rayon fabrics may shrink when dried.
Polyester- Polyester is lightweight and has a softer feel than cotton. Polyester is often blended with rayon or spandex in knit fabrics or woven fabrics. Polyester is durable and typically does not shrink or wrinkle.
Spandex- Spandex offers elasticity to fabrics and allows clothing that are fitted to adapt to your shape. Spandex is durable, can be machine watched using warm water, tumble dry on a low temperature setting.
