Sister, let’s simplify the fabric chaos.
There are materials (what the fabric is made of) and textures (how the fabric looks and behaves). Knowing the difference helps you shop smarter — and avoid “see-through surprises.” 😅

🌿 MATERIALS (what it’s made of)

Viscose
Light, breathable, feels soft on the skin — like cotton’s elegant cousin.
The best part? It drapes beautifully without the slip-and-slide drama of chiffon. Many sisters say viscose hijabs are their forever hijab, and we agree — effortless, breathable, and stylish.

Cotton
Natural, comfy, easy.
True 100% cotton dresses are rare and can be pricey — blends are totally fine as long as cotton is the main ingredient.

Linen
Breathable, natural, high-end vibe.
But she wrinkles faster than we can say “steam iron.” Linen blends = the beauty of linen without the chaos.

Polyester
Budget-friendly, durable, comes in many textures.
Listen… polyester is not the villain. Some versions breathe amazingly (like Medina silk or chiffon), others trap heat — it’s a case-by-case situation. Trust your hands and your comfort.

✨ TEXTURES (how it feels/looks)

✨ Chiffon
Flowy, soft, dreamy — perfect for spring/summer dresses.
But… transparent. Make sure sleeves and skirts are fully lined, otherwise you’ll spend all day layering like an onion.

✨ Satin
Elegant, shiny, luxury vibes.
But cheap satin? Looks like a halloween costume. Choose high-quality satin and enjoy being the best-dressed at every event.

✨ Modal
Fancy, breathable, feels like cotton + looks like silk.
The only downside: it wants to be ironed. Every. Time.

✨ Jersey 
Comfortable, practical, budget-friendly.
Just avoid jersey in summer (too warm) and be selective with polyester — some versions breathe, some trap heat.

Ultimately? Wear what makes you feel confident and covered.
Every body, every season, every journey is different.
