01About this quality
What it is, and what it is for
Iridescent sits between a plain disc and a holographic one. The film carries a pearl coating that shifts gently from one tone to another as the fabric moves, without the hard rainbow flash of a holographic sequin.
Bridal and occasion wear buyers tend to prefer it for exactly that reason. It photographs as a soft sheen rather than glitter, and it does not fight embroidery or beadwork placed next to it.
We run it on a 120D viscose base for drape. The two core shades are Crystal and Opal, both near-white with different shift tones, and we also run the coating over pastel discs, which gives a colour with a pearl lift rather than a flat pastel.
Typical applications
- Bridal wear
- Occasion wear
- Kidswear
- Fashion knitwear
