Translucent fabric, also known as semi-opaque fabric, allows some light to pass through but objects cannot be clearly seen from the other side. It includes fabrics with an open weave containing holes and patterns as well as those with a complete weave that are semi see-through. The degree of translucency can vary, with some fabrics appearing slightly transparent when flat but much more so when held up to light or placed over objects, as demonstrated by a metallic lame fabric that seems opaque when laid flat but transparent when raised.

• Otherwise known as semi – opaque, this group of fabrics
consists of materials that are woven in a solid form and material with an open weave which includes holes and patterns. • Fishnet fashion fabric, lace and even hessian could be considered semi opaque, simply because there are some parts you can see through and some you can’t. The group which is more considered translucent consists of fabric with a complete weave that has semi see through visibility MAIN FEATURES • This fabric ranges in translucency. Some you can see slightly through when the fabric is flat and some show a lot more translucency when held up to light or over objects. The images below demonstrate this change depending on light and where the fabric is placed. • As you can see with the metallic lame fabric here, when laid flat it appears opaque and you can’t see through to the text. Yet when the fabric is raised even slightly it becomes very obvious the fabric is in fact translucent. So even though the fabric is opaque, when flat it certainly doesn’t belong in the opaque category.
