A vehicle seat includes: a seat frame; a seat pad; and a planar body configured to support, from a backside, the seat pad, and including a high-elongation part more easily extensible than other planar-body part. The planar body includes a low-density region, a high-density region, and a medium-density region in which constituent yarns are placed more thickly than the low-density region, but more thinly than the high-density region, the medium-density region being provided between the low-density region and the high-density region adjacent to each other. The low-density region is placed in the high-elongation part so that the high-elongation part is easily extensible. The high-density region and the medium-density region are placed in the other planar-body part so that the other planar-body part is less easily extensible. The medium-density region in the other planar-body part is adjacent to the high-elongation part.

A stainless wire that does not have a crystal grain of 200 nm or greater in maximum length in a surface normal to a fiber axis within a range of 1 &#x3bc;m square from a center of a diameter in a cross section normal to a fiber axial direction is used as the stainless wire that forms a fabric material.
