Chiffon fabric 50d satin chiffon for dress clothing fabric

Product Overview

This 50D satin chiffon is a lightweight, woven 100% polyester fabric developed for dresses, bridal and special-occasion garments, costumes, and other apparel requiring fluid movement. Its soft, delicate hand, flowing drape, and subtle surface sheen support elegant silhouettes without the heavier appearance of conventional satin.

The listed construction is 50Dx50D with a weight of 86 GSM and a width of 57/58″. The fabric is supplied on a make-to-order basis and is described as breathable, quick-drying, stain-repellent, durable, and easy to care for.

Specification confirmation notice: The product name and page categories identify this fabric as chiffon or satin chiffon, while the original specification table lists the fabric “Type” as “Tulle Fabric.” The same table lists “Style: Plain” and “Pattern: YARN DYED.” Buyers should confirm the final fabric classification, weave or satin construction, coloration method, finish, and approved sample before ordering.

Product Specifications

Material, Construction, Appearance, and Hand Feel

The 100% polyester composition provides a practical synthetic base for flowing fashion garments. The listed 50Dx50D yarn specification supports a fine, lightweight construction, while the 86 GSM weight allows the fabric to create movement without the bulk associated with heavier woven materials.

The original product description emphasizes a soft and delicate hand, comfortable wear, and a subtle sheen. These characteristics make the fabric commercially relevant for designs that need visual softness, graceful drape, and a refined surface rather than a rigid or heavily structured appearance.

The page also lists breathable, quick-dry, and stain-repellent properties. The exact test standards, measured performance levels, and stain-repellent finishing chemistry are not provided. Buyers with defined performance or restricted-substance requirements should communicate their standards before sampling and request the available technical information or test documentation for the final specification.

Key Product Features

• Lightweight and flowing: The 86 GSM construction is suited to garments that depend on drape, movement, gathering, or layered volume.
• Soft, delicate handle: The fabric is described as comfortable against the wearer and suitable for apparel requiring a refined tactile quality.
• Subtle sheen: The satin-chiffon appearance can add restrained luster to dresses, bridal designs, and occasionwear.
• Breathable and quick-drying: These source-listed characteristics may support warm-weather and event garments, subject to the final garment construction, lining, and test requirements.
• Durable and easy to care for: The original page describes the material as resistant to wear and tear and able to retain its soft appearance after repeated washing.
• Make-to-order sourcing: Plain-color lab dips, approval samples, OEM evaluation, and bulk-production support are available according to project requirements.

Detailed Applications and Use Cases

Dresses and Flowing Fashion Garments

The fabric is primarily suited to dresses that require soft movement, including gathered dresses, tiered dresses, overlays, draped panels, sleeves, ruffles, and other designs where a lightweight woven fabric can create visual flow.

Its subtle sheen can give evening, party, and occasion dresses a more polished appearance. Because lightweight chiffon constructions may be sheer or semi-sheer depending on color and construction, designers should evaluate opacity under the intended lighting and decide whether a lining, double layer, or strategically placed understructure is required.

Bridal and Special-Occasion Wear

For wedding and bridal programs, the fabric can be considered for overlays, flowing skirts, veils or veil-inspired details, sleeves, bows, ruffles, decorative draping, and layered panels. Its soft hand and fluid appearance can help create romantic movement without adding excessive weight.

Buyers should approve the fabric together with the proposed lining and trims. White, ivory, pale, and pastel colorways may reveal differences in transparency, shade, and surface appearance more clearly than darker colors, making lab-dip and garment-sample approval especially important.

Blouses, Skirts, Sleeves, and Layered Garments

The light weight and breathable character may also suit blouses, loose tops, skirts, scarf-like panels, and decorative sleeves. For garments worn directly against the skin, buyers should assess seam comfort, opacity, lining, and the hand feel of the final dyed and finished fabric.

When used for skirts or tops, the fabric may work best as an outer layer or in a lined construction. Sampling should confirm whether the selected color and garment shape provide the required coverage.

Costumes and Performance-Led Fashion

The product page also identifies costume use. The flowing character and surface sheen can support stage costumes, dance-inspired silhouettes, event garments, and decorative fashion pieces where movement is part of the visual effect.

For active stage use, buyers should test seam strength, snagging, perspiration exposure, wash durability, and compatibility with embellishments. The source does not specify stretch, so designs requiring significant body movement should confirm whether the approved fabric has suitable mechanical give or whether a stretch lining or alternative construction is needed.

Design and Manufacturing Considerations

• Opacity and lining: Evaluate every color over the intended lining and under realistic lighting. Lightweight chiffon may require lining or multiple layers.
• Cutting stability: Use controlled spreading and cutting methods to limit movement or distortion in lightweight fabric.
• Needle and thread selection: A fine, sharp needle and lightweight thread are generally appropriate starting points, but the sewing specification should be verified through a production sample.
• Seams and puckering: Test seam type, stitch density, and thread tension before bulk cutting. Fine woven fabrics can show puckering when the needle, thread, or machine tension is unsuitable.
• Edge finishing: Narrow hems, rolled hems, enclosed seams, or another lightweight edge finish may be considered. Confirm fraying behavior on the actual approved quality.
• Gathering and ruffles: The 86 GSM weight is suitable for evaluating gathered or layered effects, but the required fullness should be tested in a garment sample.
• Pleating, embroidery, or embellishment: Confirm heat response, dimensional stability, and local reinforcement before production.
• Color approval: The source lists a yarn-dyed pattern and also provides lab-dip timing for plain colors. Confirm the actual coloration route and approve the shade under the buyer’s required light sources.
• Care: The original page states that the fabric may be washed by machine or by hand and retains its soft feel after multiple washes. Final care instructions should nevertheless be established through testing of the approved color, finish, garment construction, lining, and trims.
• Performance verification: If breathability, quick drying, stain repellency, wash durability, or another property is a purchasing requirement, define the required standard and acceptance level before quotation.

Customization, Sampling, and Bulk Ordering

Make-to-Order and OEM Support

The fabric is listed as make-to-order. OEM service can be evaluated according to the buyer’s request, and the original page states that logos can be customized. Buyers should confirm the feasibility, method, artwork requirements, MOQ, cost, and lead time for any logo or other customization.

Plain-color development is supported through lab dips and approval samples. Requirements for custom colors, adjusted weight or width, alternative finishes, packaging, or other specification changes should be submitted for feasibility review rather than assumed to be standard.

Sampling and Lead Times

Lead time may depend on the approved color, specification, finish, order quantity, production schedule, testing, and packaging requirements. Confirm the working schedule for each quotation.

Pricing

The product price is determined according to quantity and quality. The original online unit price is divided into three quantity tiers, with more favorable pricing available for larger quantities. Request a project-specific quotation based on the required specification and order volume.

Payment Terms for Large Orders

For first-time clients, the typical payment term is a 30% down payment with the remaining 70% paid before shipping by T/T. For repeat clients, L/C may be considered. Other payment terms can be negotiated.

In addition to its own manufacturing capabilities, the company has access to specialized weaving, knitting, dyeing, printing, coating, finishing, and garment-support resources.

If this standard 50D satin chiffon does not fully match a buyer’s target hand feel, drape, color, appearance, finish, or commercial requirement, the FabricsTrades team can help evaluate alternative constructions or custom-development routes. Availability and feasibility depend on the required specification, quantity, testing, and production process and should be confirmed during sampling and quotation.

2024–2026 Fabric Regulations & Compliance Update

This product is intended for garments and is listed with a stain-repellent feature. Buyers should therefore confirm the chemistry used for the final finish, especially for consumer apparel entering markets with restrictions on PFAS or other substances.

For EU-bound clothing programs, review the EU REACH PFHxA Restriction and the China Fabric Supply Chain. The restriction applies to specified PFHxA substances in general-public clothing, related accessories, and footwear from October 10, 2026. A stain-repellent claim does not by itself identify the chemistry used or prove compliance.

For broader destination-market planning, see Global Textile Compliance 2024–2026.

Requirements vary according to the destination market, product category, finish, color, production batch, intended use, and date of sale. Before bulk production, buyers should communicate their restricted-substance list, retailer standard, testing method, and documentation requirements.

When necessary, contact FabricsTrades to request available finish declarations, chemical SDS/TDS documents, technical data, traceability information, test reports, certificates, or third-party testing support. Document availability must be confirmed for the final specification and production lot; this page does not state that the fabric is certified, PFAS-free, or compliant with any specific market requirement.
