Custom PrintedAstar Lining Fabric
Give Every Bespoke Suit a Distinctive Interior
A beautifully tailored suit is defined not only by what the world sees, but also by the details hidden within.
The cut, construction and outer fabric may create the first impression, but when a jacket opens, its lining reveals another opportunity for individuality. Custom Printed Astar Lining Fabric allows bespoke tailors, fashion designers, clothiers and made-to-measure houses to transform the inside of a suit or jacket into something distinctive.
At House of Bansilal, we create custom printed suit and jacket lining fabrics for customers looking beyond conventional plain linings. From elegant paisleys and classic motifs to artistic, contemporary and statement patterns, printed linings can give each garment its own personality.
What Is Custom Printed Astar Lining Fabric?
“Astar” is a commonly used term in India for the inner lining of a garment. Internationally, the product is generally referred to as suit lining fabric, jacket lining fabric or bespoke lining fabric.
Custom Printed Astar Lining Fabric is designed specifically for the interiors of suits, jackets, blazers and other tailored garments. Instead of limiting the garment to a standard solid-colour lining, printing allows an extensive variety of patterns, colours and visual themes to be introduced.
The result is an interior that complements the craftsmanship of the garment rather than simply remaining a functional component.
Why Does the Lining Matter in a Bespoke Suit?
In bespoke tailoring, details matter.
A carefully selected lining can complement the colour and character of the outer suiting fabric while adding an element of surprise when the jacket is opened.
For a traditional navy, black or charcoal suit, a sophisticated paisley lining can introduce subtle character. A contemporary jacket can be paired with something more colourful or artistic. Designers can also choose patterns that reflect the personality of their collection or clientele.
This creates an interesting contrast: understated on the outside, distinctive on the inside.
For bespoke tailors and made-to-measure houses, offering a selection of exclusive linings also gives clients another opportunity to participate in the creation of their garment.

Custom Printed Linings for Brand Identity
Custom printing can go beyond decorative patterns.
Tailoring houses, designers and menswear brands can develop lining concepts that complement their own identity or collection theme. Depending on the artwork and production requirements, custom designs can incorporate brand-inspired patterns, monograms, motifs or other creative elements.
This turns the inside of a garment into an additional design surface.
For premium tailoring, where individuality is increasingly important, such details can help distinguish a garment from ordinary ready-to-wear clothing.
From Classic Paisley to Contemporary Statement Designs
Paisley remains one of the most enduring choices for suit and jacket linings. Its intricate form works particularly well inside traditionally tailored garments and can be interpreted in countless colour combinations.
However, today’s lining choices extend much further.
Botanical patterns, wildlife, travel themes, abstract artwork, geometric motifs and bold contemporary graphics can all create very different personalities.
A conservative business suit may call for an elegant tonal pattern, while a wedding jacket, tuxedo or statement blazer may provide an opportunity for something much more expressive.
There is no single correct choice—the lining should become part of the garment’s overall story.

Printed or Jacquard Woven Lining?
Printed and jacquard woven linings offer two different aesthetics.
With a printed lining, the design is applied to the surface of the fabric, allowing considerable freedom in colours, illustrations and intricate artwork.
With a jacquard woven lining, the design is created through the weaving structure itself, producing a more tonal, textured appearance.
House of Bansilal works with both concepts, allowing tailoring businesses to choose a lining according to the desired appearance and character of the finished garment.
Make the Inside as Memorable as the Outside
A bespoke suit is ultimately a collection of considered details.
The lining may remain unseen while the jacket is buttoned, but when it is revealed, it can say something entirely different about the garment and the person wearing it.
That is why we believe the interior deserves the same attention as the exterior.
