Cotton is a natural fibre valued for its breathability, softness and durability. Comfortable across a wide range of climates, it is one of the most widely used fibres in clothing and can be woven into fabrics ranging from crisp poplin to soft jersey.

Poplin is a tightly woven plain-weave fabric with a smooth surface and fine horizontal ribs, traditionally made from cotton but also available in other fibres. It is lightweight, crisp and breathable, making it a popular choice for shirts, dresses and tailored garments. Poplin holds its shape well while remaining comfortable to wear
