They are amazing! No pills, last forever, and super soft and supple to boot. I haven't noticed any lack of breathability. Perhaps there are levels of quality in viscose, the same as there are with cotton? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/quick-question-viscose-is-bad-rayon-is-good-right#post-405428 Tue, 16 Aug 2011 04:12:25 +0000 lyn* 405428@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>k; no viscose and no rayon </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/quick-question-viscose-is-bad-rayon-is-good-right#post-405427 Tue, 16 Aug 2011 04:10:49 +0000 bj1111 405427@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>rayon bad. viscose, ok, but can be sweat inducing lacking some breathability. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/quick-question-viscose-is-bad-rayon-is-good-right#post-405424 Tue, 16 Aug 2011 04:04:56 +0000 lyn* 405424@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>K; no rayon. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/quick-question-viscose-is-bad-rayon-is-good-right#post-405423 Tue, 16 Aug 2011 03:59:39 +0000 Misia 405423@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Viscose is great, and I hate Rayon, I stay away from anything rayon!!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/quick-question-viscose-is-bad-rayon-is-good-right#post-405419 Tue, 16 Aug 2011 03:50:01 +0000 rae 405419@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I've no idea, but I'm sure going to tune back in to find out! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/quick-question-viscose-is-bad-rayon-is-good-right#post-405405 Tue, 16 Aug 2011 03:30:10 +0000 lyn* 405405@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm in the middle of a bidding war for an Ann Taylor wrap dress; and it's Rayon ... I hate pills. Pilling makes me want to punch someone in the face.</p> <p>I don't remember if it was Viscose that was terrible = pilling/shrinkage, etc. Or if it was Rayon?</p> <p>Thanks,<br /> Lyn </p>
