Silk fabric, pure luxury

Natural mulberry silk — is a fabric worth remembering, because the touch of this fabric can take us into a world of luxury already at 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 weight is approximately 16 momme, which gives the fabric lightness and an incredibly 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 the most ordinary project into a real “wow”.

Mulberry silk what is it, i.e. properties

A natural treasure in two variations: 100% mulberry silk or versions with elastane added, 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 gentle stretch, making the fabric even more practical for fitted 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 weightless flow of movement. A width of 140 cm allows for creating projects with a minimal number of cuts, which every sewing professional will appreciate.
Mulberry silk is made from silkworm cocoons, which most 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 at temperatures 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 a low temperature (or medium) and iron through a delicate piece of cotton from the reverse side; if necessary, 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?

Due 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 boldly 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 loose yet refined character. Thanks to the 140 cm width and the richness of patterns, this fabric is also an excellent choice for scarves, shawls and accessories that will complete any outfit.
