Whether you're looking for a bold, geometric pattern or a more delicate, floral design, our selection of jacquard fabric is sure to have something to suit your needs.

What Is Jacquard Fabric?

Jacquard fabric is a textured fabric where the pattern is woven into the fabric, unlike other patterns which are either printed, dyed, or embroidered on to the base fabric. Jacquard was first introduced in  Italian brocade, and it is still popular today.

Jacquard fabric is renowned for its intricate patterns woven into the material itself, a characteristic that sets it apart from printed or dyed fabrics. 

What is Jacquard Fabric Used For?

 

Jacquard fabrics are perfect for creating stylish home décor items such as curtains, upholstery, and pillows. They are also a popular choice for fashion items like jackets, dresses, and handbags. With their unique texture and design, jacquard fabrics can add a touch of luxury and sophistication to any project.

 

What is Jacquard Fabric Made Of?

Jacquard refers to the weave technique rather than the actual fabric, so it can be made with cotton, polyester, or even a blend of natural and synthetic fibres.

Is Jacquard a soft fabric? 

As a jacquard pattern can be woven into most fabrics, It really depends on the core fabric whether it is soft or not. The jacquard pattern is often raised so it is certainly not smooth but can definitely be soft.

How do you wash Jacquard fabric?

If the jacquard fabric is used in home furnishing it could be dry clean only, especially if used for curtains. Sometimes it can withstand careful machine washing. Always follow the care instructions for each individual fabric. 

Can you stretch jacquard fabric?

It really depends on the fabric which the jacquard is woven onto, if it is combined with elastic and therefore stretchy fabric, it will also be stretchy.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do you sell by the metre?

We sell by the half metre on our website (the price is therefore displayed by the half metre) to allow our customers more flexibility. If you wish to buy a metre, you need to buy two units, but don’t worry, it will always be cut in one continuous length. 

Can I pay for next day delivery?

We can send your fabric by courier which should arrive the next day, for the additional cost of £12. The simplest way to do this is by sending us an email  howdy@fabricsgalore.co.uk or by calling the shop on 0207 738 9589. We would need to know before 1pm, and we are unable to organise a Saturday delivery. 

Can I buy your fabrics if I live outside the UK?

Yes, we ship to Europe. For all the details, see our Shipping Page.  

Do you send out samples?

We do, our samples are 10 cm by the width of the fabric (usually 112cm or 137cm) and cost 10% of the fabric’s metre price plus £1.50 for postage. Simply go to our Request a Swatch page.

Is there an actual shop I can visit?

Yes, we have a shop in South London. All the fabrics, which are available online (and more) are in the shop alongside a small haberdashery and pattern range. 

The address is 52-54 Lavender Hill, Battersea, London, SW11 5RH.

Is it possible to get a wholesale price?

We are a fabric retailer rather than a wholesaler so the short answer is no, but if you are looking for a large quantity of fabric, it is best to email us on  howdy@fabricsgalore.co.uk to see if we can help you out.

What does OEKO-TEX 100 mean?

OEKO-TEX 100 means the fabric has been tested for 100 harmful substances. The testing and certification process extends far beyond existing legal requirements, testing not only for substances already banned, but also for chemicals known to be unsafe, but not yet controlled by legislation. Fabrics which meet OEKO-TEX 100 are great for children’s clothing or underwear. 

How quickly will I get my order?

All our orders are sent out by Royal Mail First Class so should be with you within a few days of fulfilment and often within 1-2 days. We send fabric out on a Monday, Wednesday and Friday. During busy periods such as sales, deliveries may take slightly longer, and we are always grateful for your patience.

Where do your fabrics come from?

We stock British fabrics as well as fabrics from suppliers all over the world - including Germany, Italy, Taiwan and India. 

Will you be at any shows this year?

In recent years we have cut back on the number of shows we attend but we do still go to several. For the full list have a look on our Events Page.   

Can I order a specific fabric from a supplier which you stock but isn’t on your website?

We select our fabrics from various ranges to create the interesting collections we offer and it’s rare that we buy the whole range. If you have a specific fabric you are looking for, it’s best to email us to find out if we can help you. Our email address is howdy@fabricsgalore.co.uk

When will out of stock fabrics be available again?

When we sell out of a popular fabric such as our cream bouclé, we will try very hard to get it back in quickly. As soon as it arrives, it will go straight back on our website, and we will notify our customers via social media or our weekly newsletter. If you wanted to sign up so you never miss a thing, subscribe on our simple sign up form

Do you offer gift cards?

Yes, we do have a few different types: you can buy a voucher for Free Postage for a Whole Year gift card. Or you can buy vouchers for £10, £25, £50 or £100 which will be emailed over to you immediately, in case it’s a last-minute gift. See our gift voucher page.

What does GSM mean?

GSM stands for grams per square metre; the higher the number, the thicker and heavier the fabric will be. For example, a denim or a sweatshirt fabric will have a much higher GSM than a satin.
