Faux Dupion silk is a crisp and plain weave. The fabric is weaved using warp and weft with different threads. The fabric looks resplendent and has an iridescent or two-tone effect. For instance, if you look at a pink dupion fabric, it will look purple and red from different angles. This silk is a bit cheaper than pure or raw silk. The fabric is used extensively in crafting rich upholstery and saree blouses for its shimmery effect. The fabric is strong but not as durable as the pure silk. It doesn’t wrinkle and has black specks of fabric in the weaving. It is easier to sew and you can find printed, embroidered and plain dupion silk in the market. The surface of the fabric may pill and the loose end of the fabric frill easily.
