The name was based on the English lure – “temptation; attractiveness”.Lurex is used for decorative purposes, as a constituent element of fabric or yarn. Lurex is not used on its own because of its stiffness and low strength.Lurex production is established in the USA, Japan, Italy and other countries.Fibers for lurex are obtained from aluminum, brass, copper, or nickel foil. The metal threads are then covered on both sides with a protective emulsion film. Then they are cut into strips. To obtain various other colors, the foil is pre-colored with pigments and covered with a protective film.Recently, in the production of lurex, threads from a chemical film covered with colored glue have been increasingly used. This increases the variety of colors and increases the durability of the product.Many fashion houses, such as Louis Vuitton, Oscar de La Renta, Gucci, Max Mara, Diane Von Furstenberg, Salvatore Ferragamo often show clothing models using lurex in their collections.
