What is slinky?

selection by Ulla Popken is synonymous with modern classics and eye-catching numbers. The collection features vivid, bright colors. Thanks to the high-quality fabrics and materials, you’ll always be perfectly dressed for business, special occasions or a celebration. One of the preferred materials used in the selection range is slinky. Why is it such a popular fabric?

Slinky fabric is not made using polyester. Instead, it uses only crepe-like acetate and viscose mixtures. Slinky is knitted, which means it is made of stitches that can stretch. This gives the material elasticity. Our selection label boasts a fantastic range of high-quality slinky items. 

In addition to tops with short sleeves and 3/4-length sleeves, our collections also include vests. These feature great side slits. A V-neck and half arm create a casual, relaxed look.

The advantages of slinky fabric​

The weighty, gently flowing nature of slinky has plenty of fans: The material barely ever creases and is extremely comfortable to wear. So your slinky garments can cope with a long day spent sitting down without creasing. If you’re traveling, you can also sling them in your suitcase without having to worry. What’s more, slinky is a fabric that’s perfect for warmer weather.

Slinky is available with a range of different properties: with a high-shine finish, metallic threads, or other colored synthetic fibers. The clothes can be worn on special occasions, but in most cases are also suitable for everyday wear. Slinky blouses are a great choice for a stylish work look in particular. They look fantastic worn under a blazer and work brilliantly with both skirts and pants.
