1) Fabric Overview

A luminous pure silk taffeta with the unmistakable crispness and quiet sheen that define classic couture cloth. At 110 GSM (≈22 momme), this is a substantial, dress-weight taffeta—structured, resilient, and beautifully responsive to form. The surface is smooth and refined, with silk’s natural glow rather than overt shine. This fabric reads ceremonial, architectural, and timeless: designed for garments where silhouette, volume, and finish matter as much as fabric quality.

2) How the Fabric Is Made

This fabric is woven from 100% silk filament yarns in a taffeta weave, a balanced plain weave known for its firmness, stability, and characteristic rustle. The tight interlacing creates a fabric that holds shape exceptionally well while maintaining silk’s natural luster. The finish is clean and controlled—neither overly softened nor heavily treated—allowing the intrinsic structure of silk taffeta to remain intact.
