Lenticular fabric

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
An example of a lenticular fabric sheet that changes from a blue background with white stars to a white background with red stars.

A lenticular fabric is a lattice-like arrangement of lens-shaped materials formed into a thin layer. [1] When the surface of the fabric is smooth, it often has a reflective and light-distorting appearance.

In geology [ edit ]

Lenticular fabrics are found in nature. Geological forces can produce lenticular fabrics consisting of quartz "microlenses" in clay deposits. [2] [3] [4]

In biology [ edit ]

Lenticular fabrics can be created through biological processes. For example, termites create these fabrics by combining sand with fibrous faeces to create plastic-like translucent barriers. [5] [6]

Technology [ edit ]

Manufactured lenticular fabric is used to make movie projection screens, so that the image will appear sharper and brighter. [7]

Lenticular fabric is often used for decorative purposes. It is typically made from PVC with an interlaced lenticular image covered in a lenticular lens and has a variety of uses, including sewing clothing and craft projects, such as scrap-booking. The lenticular lens on lenticular fabric leads to a variety of effects, such as flip effect of images, 3D-depth, color-changing, motion, morph, zoom, explosion, etc. [8] [9]

Lenticular fabric has been utilized in clothing and accessories to create animated imagery and 3-D effects by fashion brands such as Walter van Beirendonck , Miu Miu , doublet, Christopher Kane , and Leeann Huang. [10] [11]


Lenticular fabric is used to represent futuristic clothing in films and TV. An example of lenticular fabric appears in the movie, Back to the Future Part II , in which Marty McFly wears a lenticular baseball cap. [12]
