Custom Sequin Fabrics for Fashion and Design
- Posted by Flavio Marini
Details make a difference in fashion and textile design. Sequin fabrics bring light, colour and movement to a surface. Marini Ricami 1986 develops customised sequin embroidery by combining experience, sampling and computer-controlled production.
Sequin fabrics on rigid and stretch bases
We can work on both rigid and stretch fabrics, choosing the construction to suit the intended use. Possible applications include eveningwear, swimwear, accessories and interiors; each project requires an appropriate base fabric, sequin and care specification.

Computer-controlled embroidery and frame-based techniques help position sequins consistently across the fabric. Italian-made polyester-film sequins may be available for particular projects; any origin, certification or performance document must be confirmed for the selected component and finished fabric.
Colours and customisation
Choose a colour from the available palette or discuss a custom shade. We can also apply sequins to rigid or stretch fabric supplied by the customer, subject to testing its suitability for the process, across widths agreed for the project.
- Flower-shaped sequins combined with beads on a fabric base.
- Rose-gold mirrored sequins in several sizes embroidered on organza.
- Mirrored sequins embroidered across a textile panel in varied placement.
Sequin sizes, finishes and shapes
Sizes described in the Italian article: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 9, 11, 12, 14, 15, 18 and 25 mm. Availability depends on the sequin and equipment selected.
Finish and colour options include metallic, opaline, satin, lustred, fancy, pressed, embossed, transparent or metallic iridescent, oriental-style and custom colours. Samples help establish the exact shade and effect.
- Two sequin types overlap slightly to create a scale effect.
- Sequins layered vertically in an embroidered pattern.
- Overlapping and adjacent sequins form a scale effect.
- Two different sequin types arranged in sequence.
Shapes can include round, cuvette, offset-hole, flower, square, rectangular, oval, diamond, ring, triangular, star, teardrop, convex, hammered and reversible sequins. The design and application method determine which options can be combined.
