Egyptian cotton is a rare variety of cotton that is renowned as some of the best in the world. It has an extra long staple. which means it has longer fibers. resulting in a silkier. more durable fabric. Poplin. sometimes called broadcloth. is a plain weave which means the threads alternately cross over and then under each other. This results in a very smooth and durable fabric that has an almost silky hand feel. particularly with higher thread counts. Also. poplin looks very crisp when ironed.
