    Hi!

    I have a gorgeous 1930s gown that I'm having trouble describing the fabric. It is a rayon crepe back satin of some sort with a woven texture that looks a bit like tight tiger stripes and changes to silver when moved in the right light.

    *Edited* I cannot upload a closeup photo at the moment in the forums, I'm getting an error message, I will post as soon as I can.

    It looks like a crinkly texture from the photos above.
