Origin story
There is no single version about the origin of bumazeye. According to some sources, the fabric was invented by French weavers. Other information indicates that the canvas was already published in the 13th century in the territory of Valencia. According to third sources, Milan became the real home of this unusual material, where the fabric began to be produced in the XIV century. It is only known for certain that the fabric was made at the beginning of the 17th century. in Britain during the reign of Elizabeth I.
The origin of the name of the material also remains a mystery. Both the Italian word bombazine and the French word bombasin are translated as "cotton". Despite the similarity of the sound of "bumazey" and "paper", this material has never been used as parchment or papyrus for writing. Papyrus was made from plant crops, and animal skin was taken as parchment. Previously, the material that today we call bumazey was called bombazin. According to the descriptions, it was a silk fabric with a tight weave. A little later, this term began to define a material based on silk and linen fibers.

The very first type of paper production involved combining fibers. The basis was flax, Asian cotton with a shortened fiber was used as the weft, it did not differ in durability. Therefore, when a new type of cotton with an elongated fiber appeared, it became possible to completely exclude flax from the structure of the linen - as a result, the material became 100% cotton. Such fabric was made by the method of twill, less often crepe weaving.

In Russia, behind this fabric, the name of bumazey is firmly entrenched. At that time, its colors were not colorful and saturated, mainly the fabric was dyed in black tones and used to create clothing for mourning ceremonies. Due to the low cost of the fabric, combined with its durability, the demand for the fabric was very high. A little later, a technology for bleaching the canvas was invented and developed.
In this form, bumazeya began to be used for the manufacture of insulated underwear. From this fabric, they began to sew wardrobe items that can be worn in autumn and winter.
