Silk satin with elastane in a delicate botanical pattern on a light background

Silk fabric, pure luxury

Natural mulberry silk — is a fabric worth remembering, because the feel of this fabric can transport 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 approximately 16 momme, which gives lightness and an extremely fluid drape. The finish 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 transform even the simplest project into a true “wow”.

Mulberry silk — what it is, that is its properties

This is a natural treasure in two forms: 100% mulberry silk or versions with an elastane addition, with a weight 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 provides 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 airy movement. The 140 cm width allows for creating projects with a minimal number of cuts, which every sewist will appreciate.
Mulberry silk is produced from silkworm cocoons, which most of all like to feed 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 delicate cycle or hand-washing in water up to 30°C with a mild detergent intended for silk. Avoid chlorine and high temperatures. Do not spin at high speeds; best is to dry flat or hang in the shade, avoiding direct sunlight. Set the iron to low temperature (or medium) and press through a delicate piece of cotton on the reverse side; if necessary, use steam from a distance to avoid damaging 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 provide comfort and a relaxed yet refined character. With a width of 140 cm and a wealth of patterns, this fabric is also an excellent choice for scarves, shawls, and accessories that will complete any outfit.
