When it comes to achieving the perfect drape, chiffon is off the charts. Unlike other fabrics, it is extremely lightweight and easy to work with. If it’s exactly what you’ve been pining over, look no further! We’ve expanded our chiffon line with charming table runners. Since they are already popular with our customers, we’ve decided to tell you everything you need to know about chiffon in general and our chiffon linens in particular.
How to Tell Chiffon from Organza Despite being similar to the untrained eye, chiffon and organza are totally different fabrics. Though both of them are mostly made from silk, they feature different weave constructions. While organza is much stiffer, chiffon features a very fine weave – that’s the reason why the former creates more volume and wrinkles easily whereas the latter offers that signature fluid drape. Furthermore, chiffon can be extremely soft to the touch though it adheres to a certain standard of thickness. In terms of appearance, you’ll instantly see the difference – unlike matte organza, chiffon will have you swooning with its sheen that attracts light, making it a perfect investment for the event where the sunlight steals the show (isn’t it exactly what you’ve been looking for your spring garden party?). |

Lay the Foundation with Chiffon When it comes to transforming a plain tabletop into a perfect scene where the magic will definitely take place, it isn’t about flowers, centerpieces, or even candles in stylish holders. Rather, it’s more about the basics. Like it or not, even the rarest blossoms will look dull and unsightly if you don’t provide them with the decent foundation, which can be a bare table, a tablecloth, or a table runner. Though our online store is full of stylish tablecloths that can take any tabletop to the next level of sophistication, those who want to add a romantic element to their setup shouldn’t look any further than our chiffon table runner. |

Gone are the days when a table runner was nothing but a piece of fabric to protect the table from spills and crumbs. Today, it is a full-value accessory. With that being said, since our chiffon runners are extremely easy to drape and don’t need additional accessories to hold them in place, you can leave them as they are. But of course, a stylish ring (yes, you can utilize the ones you are using for your napkins) or a matching ribbon with a seasonal flower tucked into it will create those lovely folds, making your tabletop worthy a red-carpet event. |

..and Complement with Matching Sashes To achieve a cohesive combo, don’t underestimate your chairs. Our designer chiffon sashes will not just mirror those dreamy chiffon folds of your chiffon table runner but will also transform even the most ordinary seats into real “thrones” reserved for the elites. Unlike other chair sashes, these charms offer plenty of room for creativity. For example, you can go for a traditional way to tie sashes or give a chance to our favorite “weaved” style, which is based on interlacing several designer chiffon sashes on a Chiavari chair. If you are looking for a chair sash that will charmingly blow in the wind and shine in the sunlight, we are at your service with our curly willow chiffon sashes. Like their counterparts described above, they will beautifully complement your chairs as they are, without any additional décor. However, you’ll be surprised at how beautifully they pair with our satin chair ties! |
