Spanish term

envivado

Spanish to English Other Textiles / Clothing / Fashion
"Detalles envivados en ecopiel"

This is from a description of a three quarter length jacket. From what I can understand "envivado" is a dressmaking/sewing technique of some sort - I have found a video on YouTube http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZYIoTbbc1H4&list=PL8B9A6F591A... but it won't play on my computer for some reason (I can't hear the audio & the image goes in and out.) And, not being a dressmaker myself, I'm not sure if it would help me! Is it a type of quilting?

Country: Spain
Target: English (UK)

Any suggestions or advice welcome.

Thank you!

I always translate vivos as piping, and envivado is the same thing (verbal form)

agree k-in-sc : Piping on fabric is usually filled with cord, but I see that with leather (or "ecopiel") it's not.
