Q. What is lining fabric used for?

Answer

Your clothing will be more wearable, durable, and pleasant if you use lining fabric, which is the aim of this fabric. They often weigh very little and have a feel that may be described as velvety or smooth. However, not all of the objects need to have lining. The following are some of the reasons why seamstresses choose to use lining materials: To reduce the amount that the clothing may be seen throughin order to provide cosiness and durabilityTo provide a nice and velvety feel to the inside of the garment so that it may be worn against the skin.To provide an item of clothing with a sense of luxuryTo make a garment more durable by strengthening its structure.To make putting on the garment less difficultto hide seams, padding, interfacing, and other components, etc. When selecting the most suitable lining for a design, one must pay close consideration to the stretch factor of the fabric. It is OK to use lining fabric that does not stretch if the garment itself does not stretch, such as a cotton shirt or a jacket made of wool. If, on the other hand, the item is constructed using flexible fabrics such as jersey, tulle, or stretch satin, the lining that one ultimately decides to use needs to also be stretchy.
