Fabric with pile is a term used to describe two types of fabrics: VELVET and terry. VELVET is a soft, luxurious fabric made from silk, cotton, or synthetic fibers. It has a short, dense pile that gives it a smooth, velvety feel. Terry is a type of fabric made from cotton or synthetic fibers. It has a longer, thicker pile that makes it more absorbent than other fabrics. Both VELVET and terry are popular fabrics for clothing, upholstery, and other home decor items.
