High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! Stuff was a type of coarse thickly woven cloth manufactured in various places, formerly including Kidderminster. Originally it was probably entirely of wool, but later a 'woolsey-linsey' cloth, made with a warp of linen yarn and a worsted weft. The gowns of most English lawyers are still described as 'stuff gowns' (though probably now made of other fibres). This is in contrast with those of Queens Counsel, which are made of silk, whence they are termed 'silks'. Thus, 'stuff' refers to fabric not made of silk or silk substitutes. The word was still in English upper-class usage in this sense in the 1960s. In Victorian dressmaking terminology, stuff was used as a generic term for woven fabrics, with cloth generally reserved for woolens (as opposed to worsteds).
