What is Bengaline, havent got a clue? Since no one has replied yet--it is one of the crosswise ribbed fabrics (originally made from silk, of course), similar to faille and grosgrain. There is an order of these fabrics from fine ribs to fatter ones, but I don't remember exactly how they fall. I think bengaline is one of the fatter ones. Also, I'm sure someone will correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe some of these have "stuffers" to make the ribs fatter.
