Organdy

[2][3] Organdy is a stiffened material; sheerest among its peers, which include lawn cloth and Batiste.

The parchmentisation is a treatment of acid on cellulosic textiles in the pursuit of obtaining the characteristic of the parchment.

[5] Figured Organdy is produced by applying an acid-resisting substance to a localised area; on the contrary, immersing it completely makes it stiffen all over.

[1] In the late 19th through mid 20th centuries, young girls wore dresses made of organdy.

[6] In the 21st century, this material has fallen out of favor in the childrenswear market because of its tendency to wrinkle, which can be attributed to its stiffness.
