The term Jersey acquires its name from its namesake British island, and refers to a specific knitting procedure to churn out varieties made out of cotton, silk, wool and polyester. It is this variety in jersey dresses that has made them popular amongst women and has become a preferred clothing item. This material can be elongated both vertically as well as horizontally and is unique from other knit material types. The fact that this material is able to adjust and flow with body movements makes it a favourite summer wear for its comfort and lightness. Experts from different fashion technology institutes and learning centres have waxed eloquently on its special properties, and this material has really emerged as a very good alternate form of dress material and a welcome departure from the usual stuff. Let us look at some of them in detail: Cotton Jerseys These have the great ability to not only absorb sweat but also keep breathing through the day so that you can indulge in physical activity, sweat a lot and yet not feel uncomfortable. However, it has the disadvantage of tending to shrink and you must therefore only use cold water to wash them. Do not wring them or dry them in the washing machine as they can shrivel up further. It is better to thus lay them flat and allow them to dry on their own. The fact that they allow air to pass through them continuously means that they do not take a long time to dry and you need not have any worries on that score. Silk Jerseys These are ideal night time dresses worn typically with high heels due to the fact that they are less absorbent of sweat. That is because of the delicate dyes used to colour them and though they present a great look, they are not ideal for active wear. Synthetic Jerseys These are the ones made out of a mix of polyester and rayon and though they will not shrink upon usage of hot water when put to wash, they do not have the lightness or breathing properties that a cotton jersey would have. Since the fabric is thicker, the chances of free circulation of air and consequently sweat absorption are minimised. This again is not for those taking part in physical activity and is at best recommended for casual wear. A mix of synthetic and cotton jerseys This appears to be the best option as it accords the user the best properties of both materials - the lightness and free air circulation of cotton and the durability along with looks of synthetic material. It is thus apparent from the above that women can find jersey dresses of different materials suiting their taste and can wear them accordingly. This knit material has come to stay and it is not going to be long before fashion designers also make good use of this material in their designs.
