All about the fabric "chill"

The clothes we wear are made from a wide variety of fabrics. Depending on the purpose, the matter can be elastic, elastic, smooth and rough, warm and light. Knitwear is the most demanded fabric, because its varieties are constantly replenished with new options, allowing you to sew beautiful and comfortable outfits. The “chill” fabric appeared not so long ago, but it has already won the love of the consumer due to its positive qualities.

The variety of fabrics allows you to sew stylish, beautiful, and most importantly, comfortable clothes. In those countries where very hot weather reigns in summer, it becomes necessary to create things from thin, breathable matter, which will look favorably on the body and not hinder movement. Not so long ago, we managed to cope with this task by creating a new “chill” fabric.

The material got its name due to its ability to allow air to pass through, allowing the skin to breathe... Another name that can be found in stores is "micro-oil". This fabric is called so because of the ability of matter to fit the figure, flow and be invisible in the process of wearing. Such fabric can be plain or printed.

Despite the fact that the fabric is synthetic, it is very comfortable and practical. Its composition has three components.

• Polyester - this is the main part of the "micro-oil", it occupies 90% of the total composition. Thanks to polyester, the finished garments are durable, durable, dense and have a long-lasting color.
• Viscose in the composition of the fabric, the "chill" takes only 5%, but ensures the smoothness and silkiness of the fabric structure.
• Elastane also takes up only 5% of the total composition, but this is enough to ensure tissue extensibility and the ability to return to its original shape.

Thanks to the special interweaving of the three components, a versatile material is obtained, which is pleasant and easy to wear in hot weather. It is worth knowing that this fabric can cause discomfort for those who suffer from skin diseases or allergies, therefore it is important to carefully select products from the "chill". The description of this fabric allows you to see all the advantages and disadvantages of "micro-oil".

The positive properties include:

• long service life, strength of matter;
• lack of mashing and pilling;
• the ability to stretch the fabric and return the original shape of the product;
• short drying time;
• does not need ironing;
• does not change shape from long wearing;

In addition to the advantages, there are a number of disadvantages, including the following characteristics:

• poorly passes air;
• negatively affects the skin condition of people with allergies;
• a tight-fitting structure that is not suitable for every shape, it is important to choose the right style of clothing.

In order to use the “chill” fabric correctly, you should figure out what exactly you can sew from it.

Thanks to the peculiarities of "micro-oil" you can make almost everything from it - the main thing is to choose the right style of the thing. The most common garments made from this material are:

• dresses (ceremonial weekend or home);
• sundresses (plain and with a print);
• tunics that are close-fitting or spacious;
• shirts (for women and men, characterized by lightness and spectacular appearance);
• underwear.

A dress made of "micro-oil" looks stylish and beautiful, it is comfortable and light in it. If the style is chosen correctly, then the woman will stand out favorably against the background of the rest of the ladies. In addition to everyday clothes, wonderful concert costumes are made from the “chill” fabric. The sleek structure, rich colors and bold prints create a chic outfit for any performance. It is better to make “micro-oil” trousers spacious, then they will be comfortable even in the hottest weather. A good option would be to sew leggings and breeches from this fabric.

Underwear can also be made of "micro-oil", but it should not be worn for long, and changed at the slightest sign of an allergic reaction. Very nice and comfortable are sports kits made of "chill", consisting of a short or long top, shorts or breeches. Due to the fact that the material does not warm the human body, it is good in it in hot weather.

Any material has its own rules of care, so you need to know how to wash, dry, iron and store things made of "chill" fabric. Due to the fact that this matter is unpretentious, there are no strict requirements, but it is worth adhering to a number of nuances.

• Washing in a typewriter is carried out at temperatures up to + 40 ° C, otherwise the fabric will gradually deteriorate... You can use conventional, all-purpose powders or liquid detergents to clean micro-oil clothes. Do not use bleaches or stain removers. Starching also negatively affects such material. It is better to spin the spin at medium speed, and do not twist the clothes by hand, so as not to deform the fibers.
• The drying process can be machine-based, but it is best to avoid this if possible. In order for the clothes to retain their shape, they must be dried on a hanger, placed on the balcony or in any place where there is clean air.You should not hang things where there is direct sunlight, they negatively affect the condition of the fabric. You can dry products vertically and horizontally.
• After drying, there is no need to iron the fabric, it practically does not wrinkle and does not need an iron. Due to its delicate structure, there is a risk that ironing stains will appear on the product. If it was not possible to dry the clothes without leaving creases, then the “Silk” mode is set on the iron, and the product itself is turned inside out.
• It is recommended to store dresses and other similar things on a hanger in the closet.while sportswear and underwear can be folded and left on the shelf.

The appearance of the thing and the preservation of its properties for many years depend on the correct care of the fabric "chill". In the process of caring for clothes made of "micro-oil", it is worth considering the fact that the material absorbs odors well, so when washing it is important not to overdo it with the amount of powder, and while wearing clothes, the smell of the atmosphere in which the person was may remain on the clothes.
