But wait, what is Poly-viscose?
First, allow us to break it down into its constituents: Viscose, and Polyester.
Viscose
Viscose (also called rayon) is a natural fabric, made of wood pulp. It is machine-processed to create thread-like yarns, and is thus considered a ‘semi-synthetic’ fabric.
Due to its soft and smooth properties, is also known as ‘man-made silk’. Its natural fibres makes it comfortable, soft, and breathable.
The downside is that it is structurally weaker than other commonly worn fabrics, such as cotton and polyester.
Viscose – smooth, soft, breathable
Polyester
Polyester is a 100% synthetic fabric, and is one of the strongest, most versatile fabrics around. However, it is generally not as breathable as fabrics made of natural fibres.
Polyester – strong, versatile, long-lasting, but generally a little less breathable.
Poly-viscose
When combined, Polyester strengthens viscose, and viscose softens polyester, like a match made in textile heaven.
The result – a smooth, silky, strong fabric with breathable properties. Bonus – it’s machine washable.
Once you go Poly-viscose, you might never go back.
