The fabric reflecting various colors under light like Apple’s Liquid Glass UI in IOS 26
At WWDC 2025, Apple dropped jaws by introducing the new “Liquid Glass” design language in iOS 26 and iPadOS 26. The interface now feels like it’s made of light—multi-layered transparency, subtle depth, and a touch of futuristic elegance. Icons and UI elements react dynamically to background content and lighting, creating a smooth, glassy visual that’s both airy and alive.
"But this shift toward soft, layered translucency isn’t just happening on screens. In the world of textiles, Chinastars is leading a similar movement—bringing that same design spirit into real-world materials with their transparent iridescent reflective fabric."
Different from the normal Reflective Fabric
Most rainbow reflective fabrics on the market look like dull black fabric in daylight. Chinastars took a different route. Their transparent rainbow coating keeps the base fabric’s color and pattern visible in the daytime. It's nearly invisible—until night falls.
Under direct light at night, the surface lights up with a stunning aurora-like rainbow glow, creating a dramatic contrast that fashion designers love.
From Glass Screens to Gleaming Fabrics
Chinastars has created reflective materials that mirror the Liquid Glass aesthetic in physical form.
Transparent Iridescent Printed Reflective Fabric:
A fusion of clear coating, and vivid printed designs—ideal for standout garments.
Gradient color changing Reflective Fabric:
Gradient color base with transparent rainbow shine. Soft in daylight, magical at night.
A dazzling surface that changes with light—just like digital elements on screen. Depending on the angle and lighting conditions, the fabric can appear subtle and elegant or burst into a brilliant, shifting rainbow.
Style Meets Safety
This isn’t just about looking good. These fabrics still do the job they were made for—keeping wearers visible and safe, especially at night. That’s why they’re perfect for:
- Reflective fashion jackets
- Cycling and outdoor activewear
- Streetwear and performance gear
- Backpacks and accessories…
They bring together the best of both worlds: high visibility and outstanding style.

Chinastars use advanced coating techniques to control light reflection, color play, and transparency. Whether applied to the whole outfit or just as a subtle detail, these materials bring movement and depth to any design.
