TULLE
Tulle is a light, sheer net fabric with fine hexagonal holes, named after the French town of Tulle. It is made from silk, nylon or polyester. Tulle is almost weightless yet, depending on its stiffness, can hold lavish volume, which makes it the principal material of ballet tutus, veils, layered skirts and bridalwear. Light and airy, in several layers it creates a cloud-like effect and in a single layer a tender transparency. Tulle is delicate: it snags, tears and creases easily, and on a sheer cloth every seam must be neatly finished.
