MADRAS: A PREPPY SUMMER ESSENTIAL

Il madras è un tessuto leggero di cotone dalla caratteristica fantasia a quadri. E’ utilizzato prevalentemente per indumenti estivi come camicie, pantaloni, bermuda e giacche.
Il nome deriva dalla città di Chennai in India, chiamata Madras dagli inglesi durante il periodo coloniale.

 Madras is a lightweight cotton fabric with typically patterned texture and plaid design, used primarily for summer clothing—shirts, pants, shorts, dresses and jackets. The fabric takes its name from the former English name of the city of Chennai in India. This cloth also was identified by the colloquial name, “Madrasi checks.”

Oggi Madras definisce un tipo di fantasia piuttosto che uno specifico tessuto. Il Madras è disponibile in poplin di cotone, seersucker e nella versione patchwork, che si ottiene cucendo insieme diverse piccole pezze di tessuto di dimensione e colori diversi tra loro.
Inteso come tessuto, il Madras presenta la caratteristica di avere il fronte uguale al retro.

Madras today is available as plaid patterns in regular cotton, seersucker and as patchwork madras. Patchwork madras is fabric that is derived from cutting several madras plaid fabrics into strips, and sewing them back together as squares of 3 inch sizes, that form a mixed pattern of various plaids criss – crossing. As a fabric, it is notable because the front and back of the fabric are indistinguishable.
