Stretch Knit Crepe - Riga

The Riga Elastic Knit Crepe fabric is an elegant and versatile textile option that combines the softness of crepe with a vibrant printed design that evokes the beauty of the animal world through a subtle animal print of multicoloured birds and feathers.

This print, which incorporates a multicoloured palette, becomes the focal point, highlighting the connection with nature through a stylised representation of birds and their feathers. The active and varied colours of the design allow the fabric to be combined with solid tones such as black, white, grey or even terracotta and dark green, achieving combinations that enhance the richness of the print. The fabric is printed with the stamped design on one side using digital textile printing, which ensures that the image is sharp and detailed, maintaining its vibrancy over time.

The general characteristics of this fabric include its composition of 94% polyester and 6% elastane, which gives it excellent elasticity and a pleasant feel, making it comfortable to wear. The granular texture of the crepe adds to its appeal, providing not only an interesting visual element but also an amplitude effect that will make each garment stand out. As for the printed design, its unique and vibrant character allows it to stand out in any application, adapting to various fashion trends.

Among its applications and uses, the Riga Elastic Knit Crepe is ideal for a wide range of fashion garments for both women and men, such as dresses, jumpsuits, t-shirts, tops, skirts, trousers and cardigans. This fabric also lends itself to creating knitwear that can be used for casual or semi-formal occasions, and in addition, its versatility makes it suitable for home decoration, such as table runners or lampshades, which brings a modern and fresh air to any environment.

As for the care of the fabric, it is important to follow the instructions to keep its characteristics intact for longer. It is recommended not to bleach, wash at a maximum temperature of 40ºC, and it can be dry cleaned, with the exception of trichloroethylene. It is advisable to iron at a cool temperature and it can be tumble dried at a reduced temperature, which facilitates its maintenance without compromising the quality of the fabric.

Finally, the printing technology used to manufacture this fabric is sublimation on polyester, a process that allows inks to be transferred to the fabric by heat. This technique ensures that the design obtained is of high quality and resistance, with colours that do not fade easily and that retain their vibrancy over time, which makes each garment not only a fashion accessory, but also a lasting investment.
