Buckram

description Buckram Overview

Buckram is a stiffened woven textile, traditionally made from cotton or linen and treated with starch, glue, or another sizing agent. The treatment gives the fabric enough body to support a shape, so buckram is used as an interfacing and structural material in bookbinding, millinery, theatrical costumes, and garments. It is valued for its function rather than surface decoration, and its stiffness can vary according to the weave and finishing process.
