Ribbed Stretch Fabric

What is Kaşkorse (Ribbed Stretch Fabric)?

Kaşkorse (Ribbed Stretch Fabric) is a type of knitted fabric renowned for its elasticity, body-hugging fit, and ribbed texture. The term “Kaşkorse” originates from the French word corset, reflecting its form-fitting and shaping properties. Similar to ribbed fabrics, kaşkorse features prominent vertical ribs on both the front and back surfaces. This structure provides exceptional stretch and recovery, making it ideal for garments that enhance body contours.

Features of Kaşkorse Ribbed Stretch Fabric

High Elasticity and Recovery

Offers outstanding horizontal stretch, allowing garments to closely hug the body and return to their original shape, preventing sagging or loosening.

Body-Shaping Structure

Tight, ribbed texture accentuates body lines, creating a sleek and fitted appearance. Perfect for dresses, bodysuits, and similar garments.

Durability

Dense knit ensures resistance to wear and tear, extending the garment’s lifespan.

Soft Texture

Typically made from cotton or viscose yarns, kaşkorse feels soft and comfortable against the skin.
