	Georgette (fabric) (from ''crêpe Georgette'') is a sheer, lightweight, dull-finished crêpe fabric named after the early 20th century French dressmaker Georgette de la Plante.The Oxford English Dictionary's earliest citation is 1915. Originally made from silk, ''Georgette'' is made with highly twisted yarns. Its characteristic crinkly surface is created by alternating S- and Z-twist yarns in both warp and weft. ''Georgette'' is made in solid colors and prints and is used for blouses, dresses, evening gowns, saris, and trimmings. ''Georgette'' has a very light and drapey hand, rendering it more common in loose flowing garments and less so in more structured pieces. Silk ''georgette'' is relatively delicate, but varieties made with synthetic fibers can be more resilient to damage. The crepe style S- and Z-twist weave makes the fabric springier and less lustrous than the closely related chiffon.
