Crucial to making any form of dress, pant or even custom made suit is the quality of fabric. Many times however, we hear these three used interchangeably referring to the same material for making custom clothes.
There is a minute but significant difference in the application and reference to these terms. As we search for the right fabric in making that essential part of our dressing ensemble look professionally crafted.

Fabrics
These are interlacing fibers yarns and filaments woven, knit, twisted, having properties of cohesiveness and thickness. Fabrics also are braided or spun to create a long piece of cloth.

A material made of natural or synthetic fibers. Textiles can be made from animal materials such as animal wool, silk, plants materials like cotton and linen and synthetic materials such as polyester and rayon.
Distinctive Qualities of Natural Fabrics
Breathability
Being made from natural fibers and yarns they offer a breathable cloth that can be comfortable and durable. The fibers are spun into a cohesive form of cloth that gives strength and durability. Wool gives good attributes of breathability.
Comfortable
Natural fabrics are far more comfortable and relaxing than synthetic material cloth. The high degree of care and craft makes these fabrics easier to use in different climates or weather, e.g. cotton and linen in hot or extremely humid conditions.
Durability
Any investment in good clothing deserves to serve the purpose to the satisfaction of the customer. Natural fibers spun into coherent mass of cloth provide strong and durable clothing. Worsted wool is durable and reliable.
Bio-degradable and Renewable
Focus on bio-degradable products like fibers helps to strengthen the green environment and recycling. Natural fibers are also renewable and recyclable.
Any form of textile or fabric that for making custom suit should be valuable and comfortable. Wool and linen are naturally generated fabrics.
