What Is Sequin Fabric? Sparkle and Elegance by the Metre
Sequin fabric, often known as payet fabric, is one of the most glamorous materials in fashion and design. Whether you’re creating an evening dress, stage costume, or a stylish top, sequin fabrics instantly add sparkle and elegance.
At Whotex London, we offer a wide range of sequin fabrics by the metre — from stretch sequin mesh to luxury embroidered options.
👗 What Is Sequin Fabric?
Sequin fabric is made by sewing or embroidering small shiny discs (sequins) onto a base material such as tulle, mesh, or satin. The reflective surface creates a stunning light effect that makes the fabric perfect for special occasions.
