This exquisite silk satin crepe has a lustrous sheen, like a pearl, and can be used on both sides. This silk is woven with extremely fine threads, more than twice as fine as standard cotton fabric: 21-denier threads in a 2-ply construction for both warp and weft. This creates a smooth, silky texture that drapes beautifully against the skin. It is also highly absorbent and breathable, and provides excellent insulation. It is often used for dresses, one-pieces, skirts, blouses, shirts, pajamas, leg warmers, and small accessories. Please feel free to contact us if you have any questions.
