Jacquard Prom Dresses

What Is Jacquard and Why Does It Look So Expensive?

Jacquard is a textured fabric with detailed patterns woven directly into the material using a special loom technique, which means the design is part of the fabric itself rather than printed or stitched on top. 

That's what gives a jacquard prom dress its rich, dimensional look that feels so much more elevated than a standard print. You'll find everything from bold florals to sleek geometric patterns in jacquard, and the way the threads interact creates a subtle sheen that shifts as you move. 

It's the kind of fabric that looks like it costs way more than it actually does.

Jacquard vs. Brocade: How to Tell the Difference

This comparison trips people up all the time, so here's the simple breakdown: 

Jacquard is the broader term for any fabric with patterns woven into it, while brocade is a specific type of jacquard that features raised, decorative designs that sit slightly above the surface of the fabric.

A jacquard prom dress can have a flatter, more seamless pattern that feels sleek and modern, while a brocade dress tends to be heavier, with more dramatic, textured detailing. 

Think of it this way: all brocade is jacquard, but not all jacquard is brocade.
