Fibre
Silk is a filament fibre which means the fibre length is very long. This is why silk is both softer and stronger than all other natural fibres. We use a luxurious 14 momme weight for our styles (the higher the momme, the heavier the silk). Our premium-quality silk is sourced and spun in China.
Fabric
To achieve the crępe de chine effect the silk yarn is spun with a high twist and when woven in fabric it creates a fine overall texture. The silk fabric has a matte, textured hand feel. The fabric is digitally printed with our unique designs.
Factory
The garments are made by our supplier in China region where silk has been produced for thousands of years. Huzhou city where the factory is located is often called the “hometown of silk” as it is considered to be one of the birthplaces for silk cultivation and still produces one of the best quality silks in the world.
