What's the Difference Between Tulle and Organza?

In this article, we will introduce the differences between tulle and organza fabrics, which are often confused, along with examples of wedding dresses and colored dresses made from each fabric.

What is Organza?

Let’s start with an explanation of organza.

"Organza" is not a name for a specific material, but a general term for a type of processing. Within organza, there are variations made from materials like rayon, polyester, and silk (crepe).

Silk organza, known as "silk organza," is a premium fabric.

Organza has a semi-translucent quality due to special processing. It has a soft feel that allows light to pass through, giving it a feminine impression ♡ Additionally, despite being a thin fabric, it also has elasticity and gives an impression of volume.

What is Tulle?

Now, what kind of fabric is tulle?

Tulle is a mesh fabric made by intertwining threads to form hexagonal nets. The coarseness of the mesh can vary, but the structure is similar to that of a facial cleansing net.

Unlike organza, tulle is not strictly considered "fabric." Surprising, right…!

Tulle fabric is characterized by its firmness and volume. Depending on the softness, it can be classified into soft tulle and hard tulle.

Most tulle fabrics are made from polyester or nylon.

Although they may seem similar, organza and tulle are actually quite different. While their appearance from afar or in photos can be difficult to distinguish, you should be able to clearly tell the difference when you hold them in your hands.

Here are some examples of wedding dresses made from organza and tulle ♩
