WOOL COTTON SEERSUCKER
Seersucker, from the Persian ریش shîr and رکش shakar meaning milk and sugar, is a striped fabric with two different textures, smooth like milk and bumpy like sugar. It is traditionally woven from cotton at different warp tensions. Seersuckers were originally a workwear and bedding fabric for hot weather, and have more recently been adopted for tailored summer suits.
This Wool Cotton Seersucker is woven on a flat loom at even tension, but in stripes of wool and cotton weft yarns. Clothes are cut and sewn from the flat fabric, but as soon as they are washed or dyed the cotton shrinks at a higher rate than the wool, causing the wool stripes to bunch up, forming soft ripples.
