German term

Samtausbrenner

German to English Marketing Textiles / Clothing / Fashion Fashion
Der Poncho, der lässig über zarte Kleider oder schmale Hosen getragen wird sowie Dreieckstücher mit **Samtausbrenner** und Fransen.

What is a Samtausbrenner? I get numerous Google hits, but nothing that really leads me to understand what it is.

Any help much appreciated. Thanks!

Looks like it to me. See e.g.

Here are some more pics and an article about how to make it:

\"Devore\" seems to be the technical name for it; for a marketing text though, I\'d certainly stick with \"burnout.\"

And if that is not enough: here is a definition (in German):
http://www.sunny-dessous.de/Ausbrenner_m34_p18.html

Ausbrenner
Stoffe aus blickdichten und transparenten Musterungen aus Garnen unterschiedlicher Rohstoffe (z.B. Viskose/Acetat oder Polyester/Baumwolle) Beim Bedrucken wird einer der Rohstoffe mit Ätzpaste zerstört. Das Gewebe erscheint an diesen Stellen transparent. In der Dessous-Branche lautet der Fachbegriff hierfür Guipure bzw. Ätzstickerei.)
