fabrics
- 1Plural of fabric.
The designer layered several fabrics to create texture in the gown.
Different fabrics react to heat and washing in very different ways.
Note
A regular plural that usually counts kinds rather than amounts. In the cloth sense, fabric is both countable and uncountable: a yard of fabric names material in the mass, while fabrics sorts it into types, as a designer layering several does. The older meanings, such as an edifice or a thing's workmanship, could take the plural too, but those uses are archaic. Calling buildings fabrics now sounds deliberately old-fashioned.
