Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What is horsehair braid trim used for in sewing?

A: Horsehair braid trim (also known as crinoline ribbon) is a stiff, mesh-like braid sewn into the hems of garments such as wedding dresses, prom gowns, and petticoats to give them a full, structured, billowing shape. It is also widely used in millinery for hat brims, in veil-making, and for home décor projects such as curtain hems and event decorations like aisle and arch adornments.

Q: Is this horsehair braid trim actually made from horse hair?

A: Despite the name, modern horsehair braid is made from 100% polyester — not actual horse hair. The name is a historical reference to the original material once used. The polyester version delivers the same structured, stiff finish while being more durable, washable, and consistent in quality.

Q: What width of horsehair braid should I choose for a wedding dress hem?

A: For a standard bridal gown hem, the 3 cm (1.18") or 4 cm (1.57") widths are most popular as they provide excellent structure and a full silhouette. Narrower widths (2 cm or 2.5 cm) are better suited for lightweight fabrics, veils, hat brims, or delicate DIY craft projects where a subtle finish is preferred.

Q: How do I sew horsehair braid trim onto a hem?

A: Turn up your hem allowance and pin the horsehair braid flat along the fold, with one edge aligned to the raw hem edge. Stitch along both long edges of the braid using a straight or zigzag stitch. Fold the hem up so the braid is enclosed inside, then press and hand-stitch or machine-sew to finish. The braid will give your hem a crisp, floating structure.
