Silk fabric, pure luxury

Natural mulberry silk — this is a fabric worth remembering, because the touch of this material can transport us into a world of luxury with just the first brush. Fabric category: Silk. This is a material made of 100% mulberry silk, or in a version with the addition of elastane, with a width of 140 cm. The gsm (fabric weight) is approximately 16 momme, which provides lightness and an exceptionally fluid drape of the fabric. Finishing and texture depend on the chosen weave: silk satin, twill, crepe de chine, and chiffon create a varied 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, i.e., properties

A natural treasure in two versions: 100% mulberry silk, or versions with the addition of elastane, with a gsm of around 16 momme, which guarantees excellent abrasion resistance 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 delicate stretch, making the fabric even more practical for fitted cuts. The silk satin weave gives an intense sheen 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 sewer will appreciate.
Mulberry silk is made from silkworm cocoons, which most enjoy feeding on mulberry leaves.

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 temperatures up to 30°C with a mild detergent intended for silk. Avoid chlorine and high temperatures. Do not spin at high speeds; it is best to dry it flat or hang it 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 needed, use steam from a distance so as not to damage the delicate structure. Elastane versions also require gentle care to preserve 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 surprise with elegance and comfort. Perfect for long, flowing dresses and evening blouses, as well as for statement-made shirts and skirts with soft, flowing lines. Elastane versions work great for fitted styles — a fitted blouse, a light blazer, or an elegant jumpsuit will ensure comfort and a loose but refined character. With a width of 140 cm and a wealth of patterns, this fabric is also an excellent choice for scarves, headscarves, and accessories that will complete any outfit.
