FAQ About The Role of Shibori in Modern Textile Design
What materials are commonly used in Shibori today?
While traditional Shibori primarily uses natural fibers like cotton, silk, and wool, modern adaptations see the use of synthetic materials like polyester blends. The choice of fabric can affect the outcome of the dye pattern and texture, allowing designers to experiment with different materials for unique finishes. Those interested in environmentally sustainable practices may still prefer natural fibers due to their biodegradability.
