Light blue silk satin with elastane, with a small geometric pattern

Silk fabric, meaning pure luxury

Natural mulberry silk — is a fabric worth remembering, because the feel of this fabric can take us into a world of luxury already with the first touch. Fabric category: Silk. This is a material made of 100% mulberry silk or in a version with an elastane addition, with a width of 140 cm. The weight is about 16 momme, which gives the fabric lightness and an extremely fluid drape. Finishing and texture depend on the selected weave: silk satin, twill, crepe de chine, and chiffon create a diverse character — from a glossy sheen to a subtle, matte charm. These textiles can turn even the most ordinary project into a real “wow”.

Mulberry silk — what it is, meaning its properties

A natural treasure in two variations: 100% mulberry silk or versions with an elastane addition, with a weight of around 16 momme, which guarantees excellent drape and durability. Mulberry silk is a fabric with exceptional hygroscopicity and thermoregulation — the skin breathes, moisture evaporates, and the material maintains thermal comfort even in changing conditions. Optional elastane adds a gentle stretch, making the fabric even more practical for tailored cuts. The silk satin weave provides an intense shine and a smooth surface, twill adds a soft texture and subtle weight, crepe de chine introduces a lightly ribbed, soft texture, and chiffon ensures lightness and a flowing movement. A width of 140 cm allows for creating projects with a minimal number of cuts, which every dressmaker will appreciate.
Mulberry silk is produced from silkworm cocoons, which most like to feed on mulberry leaves.

Silk pattern and color options available in our wholesale store

A very wide range of colors and over 200 patterns are available. Thanks to different weaves, colors appear differently: satin emphasizes the intensity of the colors and shine, crepe de chine gives a slightly muted tone, chiffon adds lightness and transparency. In our offer you will find both bold, saturated tones and delicate pastels as well as classic neutral shades. Over 200 patterns open the door to projects from evening dresses to everyday, elegant blouses, and the wide palette of colors makes it easy to match the fabric to any style.

In this version, on delicate light-blue satin, we have a colorful small geometric pattern, and additionally on a blue background there are tiny delicate dots in a lighter blue.

How to care for silk?

Composition: 100% mulberry silk or versions with elastane. To maintain the fabric’s properties, we recommend washing on a gentle cycle or hand washing in water at up to 30°C with a mild detergent intended for silk. Avoid chlorine and high temperatures. Do not spin on high settings; best is to dry flat or hang in the shade, avoiding direct sunlight. Set the iron to a low temperature (or medium) and iron through a delicate piece of cotton from the reverse side; if necessary, use steam from a distance to avoid damaging the delicate structure. Elastane versions also require gentle care in order to preserve the stretch without losing shape.

What can be sewn from silk?

Thanks to its lightness, drape, and beautiful sheen, natural mulberry silk is ideal for projects that want to impress with elegance and comfort. Perfect for long, flowing dresses and evening blouses, as well as for statement shirts and skirts with soft, flowing lines. Elastane versions are great for fitted styles — a fitted blouse, a light blazer, or an elegant jumpsuit will provide comfort and a loose but refined character. With a width of 140 cm and a richness of patterns, this fabric is also an excellent choice for scarves, shawls, and accessories that will complete any outfit.
