What is Mulmul Fabric?
- Mulmul fabric is so light and sensitive that it is frequently referred to as "wonder gossamer" or "woven wind."

- It was initially woven by Bengali weavers almost 100 years ago.
- Mulmul cotton cloth was a treasured Indian import to the territories of England and Scotland.
- It first appeared on the market there, and afterward, gradually the continent's countries began to manufacture it.

History
- It was traded in Europe by the 17th century and was one of the prized imports from India.
