Manipis [thin] - Litratong Pinoy

Kasali sa mga transparent fabrics na kinabibilangan ng chiffon, gasa at linen, ang organza ay manipis na telang gawa sa rayon o polyester, o hinabi sa sutla. Medyo malutong ito sa kamay at kadalasan ay ginagamit sa mga magarbong evening wear, lining ng damit, damit pambata at ito nga, burdadong mantel. Organza din ang paborito kong kurtina sa bahay---may frilly touch at magaan ang tela, (read: madaling labahan) at nakakalusot pa ang hangin. Kung type mo naman ang romantic effect, maglagay ng organza netting o kurtina sa iyong 4-poster bed para feeling Cleopatra ka. At kung may nakatago kang organza scarf, pwede mo rin ikulambo sa maliwanag na lampshade para lumikha ng intimate ambiance.

A member of the transparent family of fabrics that includes chiffon, gauze and handkerchief linen, organza is a light, sheer, stiff fabric made of either man-made yarns like rayon or polyester, or of silk. It has a crisp feel and typically used to make fancy evening wear, as a clothing lining, children's dresses and yes, embroidered tablecloth. Organza is my favorite choice of curtains at home, too---it adds a frilly touch to my windows. I also like the lightness of the material, it's easy to wash; and because it's sheer, outside breezes can pass through organza curtains. If you'd like to infuse a sense of romance and luxury to your bedroom, add organza curtains around your 4-poster bed, or netting over it. Organza scarves can also be draped over lampshades to diffuse light and create an intimate ambiance.
