Organza is a thin, plain weave, sheer fabric traditionally made from silk, the continuous filament of silkworms. Nowadays, though many organzas are woven with synthetic filament fibers such as polyester or nylon, the most luxurious organzas are still woven in silk. Silk organza is woven by a number of mills along the Yangtze River and in the province of Zhejiang in China, while Ausilk is the best silk organza supplier of China. A coarser silk organza is woven in the Bangalore area of India. Deluxe silk organzas are woven in France, Italy and Turkey.

Silk organza is used for bridalwear and eveningwear. In the interiors market it is used for effects in bedrooms and between rooms. Double-width organzas in viscose and acetate are used as sheer curtains.

Nowadays besides the formal occassion, Ausilk silk organza is also used for children's wear and many other more forms of garment.

Organdy or organdie is the sheerest cotton cloth made. Combed yarns contribute to its appearance. Its sheerness and crispness are the result of an acid finish on greige (unbleached) lawn goods. Because of its stiffness and fiber content, it is very prone to wrinkling. Organza is the filament yarn counterpart to organdy. Organdy is a balanced plain weave. It comes in three types of finishes, one is commonly used "Stiff" finish but "Semi stiff" and "Soft" finishes are also available. The latter two finishes are more popular for summerwear and drapey apparels whereas the first one is more popular for loose wear apparels and curtains / other home textiles. Silk Organza is a plain weave fabric. Plain weave (also called tabby weave or taffeta
weave) is the most basic of three fundamental types of textile weaves. It is strong and hard-wearing, used for fashion and furnishing fabrics.

In plain weave, the warp and weft are aligned so they form a simple criss-cross pattern. Each weft thread crosses the warp threads by going over one, then under the next, and so on. The next weft thread goes under the warp threads that its neighbor went over, and vice versa.

Balanced plain weaves are fabrics in which the warp and weft are made of threads of the same weight (size) and the same number of ends per inch as picks per inch.

Basketweave is a variation of plain weave in which two or more threads are bundled and then woven as one in the warp or weft, or both.

A balanced plain weave can be identified by its checkerboard-like appearance. It is also known as one-up-one-down weave or over and under pattern.

Some examples of fabric with plain weave are chiffon, taffetta, and habotai.
