The history of name
The origin of the word "organza" is ambiguous. Thus, there is a version linked to the name of the ancient city in Uzbekistan called Urgench or Urganch in Uzbek. In Europe, the fabric was taken at the end of the 18th century, while a silk factory had been operating in Urgench for a long time. The accent on the last syllable in the city name confirms this version.
There is also another version, which says that the name of this fabric resembles the name of the American firm Lorganza, founded in 1820.
