What Is Lycra Fabric?

Lycra is a brand name for elastane, which is a highly elastic synthetic fabric. Despite having different names, Lycra, spandex, and elastane are all the same material, and these fabrics can stretch to 5-8 times their usual size. This fabric was originally developed by the DuPont Corporation in the 1950s.

Lycra has a stretch property cotton lacks. This  allows for a Lycra blended item to retain its shape and not sag or sag. Therefore, Lycra is becoming more popular to manufacture clothes with because of its durability. Cotton has a tendency to wrinkle while Lycra is commonly used in no-iron shirts.

Cotton lycra and cotton spandex are the same type of fabric. Cotton lycra has 4-way stretch and a soft hand making it a comfortable and versatile fabric. The edges will curl towards the right side of the fabric when cut and stretched.
