There is a myriad melange of different types of interlining-factory fabrics available in the market. Fabric selection is a punctilious task. It should be scrupulously chosen because they are the prime factor in deciding the cost, durability, wear ability and look of the salwar kameez. Fabrics are season dependent. Different cloth materials are suitable to different weather conditions.

Cotton - It is the most widely worn fabric and since it is lightweight, it is ideal for summers. Beat the heat with a cotton salwar. It is soothing to your skin and will keep you cool when the temperature is soaring. Cotton suits are adorned generally with thread work because they are usually worn for casual purposes.

Traditional Lucknow embroidery i.e. Lucknawi kurtas are quite popular in cotton fabric. White thread is used over light colors like pink, yellow, etc. but one can even find work by colorful threads.Crepe salwar kameez's beauty is ameliorated and enriched with patchwork. Georgette is a fabric that is embroidery friendly. Any kind of adornment can be easily done over Georgette salwar kameez and the work even looks prominent.

Crepe - It is a wrinkle free fabric. Inamorata's first choice, this sensuous fabric has a rich look. Its most common form is the Mysore crepe. It is preferred by young girls with curvaceous or petite figures as it clings to the body. It is a kind or slippery fabric like satin and hence, machine embroidery is dominant over hand embroidery.

Georgette - It is ideal for a patiala kameez and salwar. This Woven Interlining fabric can be draped both as party wear and for daily purpose.Traditional chanderi work looks dazzling over Georgette suits. Sequins, stones, rhinestones and Swarovski are used to create heavy special occasion suits. For day-to-day wear, printed patterns prevail.
