Fabric Types
Explore the full range of linen fabrics available for your event — from timeless classics to bold specialty textures.
Basic & Classic
Timeless foundations for any event
Basic and Classic fabrics provide the essential building blocks of event design. These dependable, well-priced linens come in a broad spectrum of colors — from crisp White and Ivory to rich jewel tones — and deliver a clean, polished look suitable for weddings, corporate gatherings, and celebrations of every kind.
Choose Basic for a smooth, no-fuss finish or Classic for a slightly elevated hand and drape. Both are available across tablecloths, napkins, and table runners.
Specialty fabrics bring a distinctive personality to any event, moving beyond the everyday to create memorable visual impact. Sheer overlays add a light, airy elegance that softens table lines, while lace and brocade patterns introduce intricate texture and old-world charm. For those seeking playful touches, dotted, plaid, and striped options offer casual versatility, while floral prints and bold glitz-and-posh selections make a confident statement at galas and celebrations. Each specialty weave is crafted to drape beautifully and photograph well, ensuring your tables look as polished in person as they do in your planning gallery. Mixing a specialty overlay with a basic base cloth is a popular way to achieve layered depth without overwhelming the overall design.
Understanding the relationship between fabric type and weave is key to building the right look for your occasion. Basic linens deliver a smooth, straightforward finish that works beautifully with any color palette, while Classic fabrics offer a slightly richer hand and more refined drape for those seeking an elevated presentation. Dinner napkins, table runners, and chair covers all benefit from thoughtful fabric selection, as the right weave can transform a standard setup into something chic and intentional. Whether your event leans toward timeless ivory and white or embraces bold jewel tones and metallics, the range of available textures ensures that every element of your tabletop coordinates seamlessly with the theme you have envisioned.
Building a swatchbook is the ideal way to explore fabric combinations before committing to a final design. By gathering samples of different colors, weaves, and textures side by side, you can see how a champagne overlay pairs with a rich maroon base or how a sheer fabric diffuses light across a dinner table. The swatchbook process allows you to mix classic foundations with specialty accents, experiment with seasonal palettes like spring pastels or vintage-inspired teals and mustards, and save your favorite pairings for easy reference. Whether you are planning an intimate cocktail gathering or a grand reception, having physical samples in hand gives you confidence in your choices and ensures every detail aligns with your overall vision.
Brocade & Sheer Overlay
Layered elegance and dimension
Brocade fabrics bring raised patterns and a luxurious, tactile quality to tabletops — ideal for formal receptions and gala dinners. Sheer Overlays, in contrast, float delicately over a base cloth, adding softness, depth, and a hint of shimmer without overwhelming the setting.
Layer a champagne organza overlay over ivory for a romantic glow, or pair a deep-toned brocade runner with metallic accents for a dramatic statement.
Specialty Fabrics
Lace, Dots Plaid & Stripes, Themes & Prints, Floral
For events with a distinct personality, Specialty Fabrics offer pattern, texture, and charm. Delicate Lace linens evoke vintage romance; Dots, Plaids, and Stripes bring crisp, graphic energy; Themes & Prints capture seasonal and whimsical motifs; and Floral fabrics bloom with color for garden parties, showers, and spring celebrations.
Each specialty fabric can stand alone or be paired with solid Basics and Classics for a curated, layered look.
Glitz & Posh
Upscale glamour for standout events
When the occasion calls for sparkle and sophistication, Glitz and Posh fabrics deliver. Glitz linens incorporate metallic threads, sequin textures, and light-catching surfaces that shimmer under event lighting. Posh fabrics offer a refined, high-end hand — think crushed taffeta, satin finishes, and rich dimensional weaves.
These fabrics are especially popular for New Year's Eve galas, milestone anniversaries, and black-tie wedding receptions.
