DÉFINITION
- n. From the French "moire", borrowed to English. It defines the technique by which certain ribbed fabrics of cotton, acetate, rayon, silk and some other manufactured fibre fabrics are subjected to heat and pressure with engraved rollers that press the design into the fabric. The difference in reflection of the light from the uncrushed and crushed parts of the design result in the moiré effect.
