Metallic Lurex

Metallic lurex is a type of yarn or thread that has a shiny, metallic appearance. It is made by wrapping a thin, metallic film around a core of nylon, polyester, or other synthetic material. The metallic film can be gold or silver color. The result is a yarn that has a glittering, reflective quality that catches the light and gives a sparkly effect.

Lurex was first developed in the 1940s as a way to add glamour and shimmer to fabrics. It became popular in the 1960s and 1970s as part of the disco fashion trend and is still used today in a wide range of clothing and accessories.

Metallic lurex can be used on its own to create sparkly, eye-catching fabrics, or it can be combined with other fibers to add a subtle shimmer. It is commonly used in knitwear, such as sweaters as well as in evening wear, costumes, and accessories like bags and shoes.
