Wear light: EL in fashion and textiles

Embroidered, woven and stitched: how ultra-fine EL thread is changing what fabric can do.

Fashion has always played with light, through sequins, metallic threads and reflective trims. EL goes one step further: the fabric itself glows.

Thread you can stitch

Our STYELIGHTS™ Thread Series is an ultra-fine EL thread, around 0.3 to 0.8 mm in diameter, that can run through standard embroidery machines or be stitched by hand. That means designers can use familiar techniques to create patterns, logos and motifs that glow.

The magic is in the switch from day to night. Try it:

Elegance that glows, even in daylight.A mesmerizing glow that transforms every moment.

Where it shines

  • Bridal and couture: gowns and sarees that turn magical after dark.
  • Menswear: tuxedos with luminous embroidered lapels.
  • Accessories: handbags, purses and footwear with glowing details.
  • Stage and events: costumes built to be seen.
