D&G-style silk satin with elastane in green peas pattern

Silk for a summer dress

Silk satin with elastane in green peas in the D&G style — this is luxurious silk satin that combines natural sheen with delicate stretch. A fabric that in practice brings together show-stopping glamour and everyday comfort to wear—elegant, yet breathable and comfortable.

Properties of silk satin with elastane

Composition: 92% silk, 8% elastane; Weight: 70 g/m²; Width: 140 cm; Weave type: satin weave; Structure: close and opaque; Finish: slippery and smooth. Thanks to combining the natural breathability of silk with the flexibility of elastane, the fabric drapes beautifully over the silhouette, providing wearing comfort and an eye-catching, slightly shimmering drape. Lightweight yet durable—ideal for elongated cuts and precise sewing that value luxury without extra weight.

Pattern and color palette of the silk

Cream-colored background with a pattern of green peas pods creates a fresh, slightly retro character. The pattern repeats regularly, and shades of green—from light to darker—add subtle depth. In made-to-measure designs, the print contrasts beautifully with beiges, creams, and navy tones, highlighting the fabric’s elegance and lightness.

Caring for silk satin

Hand wash in summer water (30°C) or delicate machine program, in a protective bag; use a mild detergent for silk. Do not bleach, do not tumble dry. Dry flat or hang in the shade. Iron on the left side, set for silk (about 110°C), with a thin protective fabric or with steam; avoid high temperatures that may damage elastane.

Applications of silk satin with elastane

Thanks to its subtle sheen, light weight, and elasticity, this fabric is perfect for evening and cocktail designs: long or midi dresses, fitted blouses, as well as elegant skirts with simple cuts. The pea print adds character, and the silk weave provides a fluid, luxurious drape—an ideal choice for D&G-inspired creations that impress with both form and wearing comfort.
