Metallic fibers are often added to fabrics for decorative purposes as they impart a shiny and shimmery appearance. However, they can also be added for functional purposes such as enhancing the fabric's strength, conductivity, or thermal properties.

What are fiber and fabric?

Natural fibers are cloth fibers that are grow naturally and are found and harvested from two main sources: animals and plants. Fibers harvested from animals are hairs (wool is made from sheep hair, cashmere from goat hair, etc.) while fibers harvested from plants are comprised mainly of the actual construction of the plant (cotton is the seeds of a cotton plant, linen is made from the flax plant, etc.). Fibers such as these are harvested, spun into thread, and then woven together to make the fabrics we know today. Two other types of natural fabrics are silk and leather, silk being made from cocoon fibers produced by silkworms and leather is animal skin (natural fur is produced the same way). This is versus synthetic fabrics that are man-made and are generally comprised mainly of various types of plastics. The most common natural fibers are cotton, linen, wool, and silk. Though you'll have a very difficult time finding very many fabrics that are 100% natural.
