Mink velvet is a relatively new type of clothing fabric. It is relatively expensive and is often used to make high-end clothing, such as the “mink coat” we often hear. Mink velvet clothing has a gorgeous appearance and good thermal insulation effect. Therefore, it is also well received by consumers. This article will give you an in-depth understanding of mink velvet fabric.
Mink velvet is made from the undercoat of mink fur. It can be used in the production of clothing after processing. Because the raw materials are relatively rare and the processing process is complicated, so It is generally only used in the field of high-end clothing. Currently, polar fleece and crabapple fleece are the most common ones. Mink fleece is soft to the touch and strong in texture. It is usually washed, so the suede is plump and has a smooth color. It is suitable for normal wear. There will be no hair loss, nor will it irritate the skin, so it can be worn close to the body.
The entire garment-making process of mink velvet will go through needle removal, trimming and other treatments. These treatments can maximize the warmth and comfort of the fur. This will not only not look bloated like other wool materials, but also It will look more gorgeous and light, and its coloring and color fixing properties are very good. This type of clothing will have more diversified color choices. The stability of the cloth surface is better, so the clothing can be processed such as embossing. There is also a lot of room for development in terms of style and shape.
Can mink velvet be washed?
The quality and price of mink velvet are relatively high. Incorrect washing methods will seriously shorten the life of the clothing. First of all, mink velvet can be washed, but it must be hand washed rather than machine washed, because this type of clothing will be relatively large. Before cleaning, you can use a soft brush to lightly clean the dust on the surface, then soak it in a basin, add neutral detergent and scrub gently in one direction. After cleaning, rinse with clean water quickly. If conditions permit, you can put the clothes into a laundry bag for dehydration. The entire washing process is complicated and time-consuming. The washing frequency of this type of clothes is very low. Friends who do not know how to wash are recommended to take them to a dry cleaner for dry cleaning.
How to identify the quality of mink velvet:
1. The most direct way is to touch it with your hands. If the fabric base is soft and will not collapse, it is mink velvet of better quality. If it is found that there is collapse, the fabric is hard, and there is baldness or lack of hair, it is a defective product.
2. Then you can use blowing to identify the mink velvet. Blow into the fluff of the clothes. The one with a smooth suede surface and no knotting will be of better quality.
3. Mink velvet can also be identified by observing its coat color. Mink velvet with uniform and shiny color is of better quality.
4. Finally, you can identify it by smelling it with your nose. Good mink velvet does not have any chemical smell.
