Silk satin with elastane in an artistic pattern in rust red

Mulberry silk fabric, meaning pure luxury

Natural mulberry silk — a fabric worth remembering, because the feel of this textile can transport us into a world of luxury already at the first touch. 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 provides lightness and an exceptionally fluid drape. Finishing and textures depend on the selected weave: silk satin, twill, crepe de chine, and chiffon create a variety of character — from a glossy shine to a subtle, matte charm. These textiles can transform even the most ordinary project into a true “wow”.

Mulberry silk — what it is, meaning its properties

A natural treasure in two versions: 100% mulberry silk or versions with the addition of elastane, with a weight around 16 momme, which guarantees excellent creasing 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 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. A width of 140 cm allows for designs with a minimal number of cuts, which every seamstress will appreciate.
Mulberry silk is made from silkworm cocoons, which most like to feed on mulberry leaves.

More than 200 patterns open up possibilities for projects from evening dresses to everyday, elegant blouses, and a broad color palette makes it easy to match the fabric to any style.

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 up to 30°C with a mild detergent intended for silk. Avoid chlorine and high temperatures. Do not spin at high speed; best is to dry flat or hang in the shade, avoiding direct sunlight. Set the iron to a low temperature (or medium) and press through a delicate piece of cotton from the reverse side; if needed, 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 you sew with silk?

Thanks to its lightness, drape, and beautiful shine, natural mulberry silk is perfect for projects that want to surprise with elegance and comfort. Ideal for long, airy dresses and evening blouses, as well as for statement shirts and skirts with soft, flowing lines. Elastane versions are excellent for fitted styles — a fitted blouse, a light blazer, or an elegant jumpsuit will provide comfort and a loose 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.
