Double Face Fabric

What Is Double Face Fabric?

As the name suggests, double face fabric is a special type of knitted fabric that can be used on both sides, each of which is aesthetically finished. It is produced by knitting two separate sets of yarns simultaneously. Both surfaces are smooth and can feature different colors or patterns. Thanks to this unique structure, double face fabric allows you to achieve two distinct looks with a single fabric — eliminating the need for a lining. With its thick and structured feel, it stands out among other knitted fabrics and is especially ideal for outerwear.

Characteristics of Double Face Fabric

Dual Sided Use

The most distinctive and functional feature of this fabric is that both sides are visually appealing and suitable for use. This offers designers great flexibility to create garments with contrasting colors or unique pattern combinations using just one fabric.

Thick and Structured Drape

Since it is made by combining two separate layers, the fabric has a full-bodied and dense texture. This gives garments a voluminous, elegant appearance.

High Durability

Its tightly knitted structure makes the fabric highly resistant to wear and tear. It does not unravel easily and retains its shape over time.

Excellent Heat Insulation

The fabric’s thick construction provides superb warmth, making it ideal for outerwear designed for cold weather.

No Lining Required

Because both sides of the fabric are smooth, it eliminates the need for additional lining. This not only reduces production costs but also results in lighter and more comfortable garments.

Applications of Double Face Fabric

Outerwear:
Commonly used for coats, jackets, overcoats, and vests. Its double-sided nature ensures that even when a zipper or opening is exposed, the garment still maintains an elegant appearance.
Hoodies and Sweatshirts:
Due to its thickness and structured feel, it’s ideal for sweatshirts and hooded tops. The use of contrasting colors on each side adds a modern touch to the designs.
Accessories:
Popular in winter accessories such as hats, scarves, and shawls. Having two different colors or patterns on each side allows for more styling flexibility.
Home Textiles:
Used in decorative blankets, pillow covers, and cushions for a plush and stylish look.

Types of Double Face Fabrics

Based on Fiber Content

Based on Weight and Structure

250–500 GSM Double Face Fabrics: Available in various weights depending on their intended use. Lightweight options around 250 GSM are ideal for mid-season garments, while heavier versions up to 500 GSM are suitable for outerwear requiring extra warmth and protection.

Non-Stretch (Non-Lycra) Options: Double face fabrics are generally produced without elastane, providing a firm and stable structure that maintains its shape and form over time.

Based on Design

Plain (Solid Color) Double Face: Typically produced in two different solid colors, this is the most common and versatile type of double face fabric — an excellent choice for simple and sophisticated designs.

Printed and Patterned Double Face: One side can be printed while the other remains solid, or both sides may feature different designs. This opens up endless creative possibilities for unique and expressive fashion concepts.
