    hmmm...i got this shirt that basically is like a stretchable one. the thing is, when i wear it, it looks like a muscle shirt, and doesn't look that nice on me. is there any way to make the fabric lose elasticity, like spray something? i've tried pulling/tugging on it and for a while, it actually fit just fine, but came back to original size after an hour. hehehe.

    thanks in advance.

    ...i was thinking na baka makuha sa plantsa, kaso baka yan yung madaling masunog na fabric. usually it will lose its elasticity over time, so gawin mo munang pambahay yan.

    if the shirts material has combination of lycra, cotton and nylon, medyo stretch yung fabric, what you could try to do is iron the shirt, magiging loose yan ng konti, use it more often or have it wash more often, tendency is it will strecth a bit, however if the material are made up of mainly lycra like those suits superman and batman wears medyo malabo na mag expand yan ng todo, if it does pangit na yung kalalabasan

    james, medyo mahirap ata to change the physical properties of fabric. Better off selling it and going for one with the kind of feel you like.

    IMO, silk is the best ;)

fabric/shirt question
