• Sinamay is woven from the stalks of the abaca tree. Abaca fibre is stronger than cotton or silk, and as a result of that sinamay holds a very firm shape. It is one of the most common materials used in fascinator making and can be used to create all kinds of hat shapes too.

Answer 2

Answer:

There as so many choices when it comes to deciding what millinery material to use. Determining the best material for a specific hat style can be confusing. If you want to create lightweight spring and summer hats, sinamay might be just what you’re looking for.

One of the most popular hat making materials (and one of my favorites), sinamay is a natural straw fabric made from abaca fibers. It is dyeable, versatile and strong, so it offers endless millinery possibilities.

Sinamay is widely used for blocking hats and trims, but it wasn’t introduced to the millinery world until the 1990s. It is woven in the Philippines, from the stalks of the abaca tree. Abaca fibers are very strong and long-lasting. For ease of blocking, sinamay is often pre-stiffened during manufacturing. Plus, since it is a natural material, it holds dye very well.
