Frequently Asked Questions

What is Poly-Crepe-de-Chine and how does it compare to real silk?
Poly-Crepe-de-Chine is a high-grade synthetic fabric designed to mimic the luxurious look and feel of natural silk. It features the signature "pebbly" or crimped texture of traditional crepe, along with a graceful, fluid drape. The "silk-look" refers to its sophisticated matte-lustre finish, which provides the elegance of silk with the added durability and easy maintenance of polyester.
Is this fabric breathable?
Yes. Despite being a synthetic fiber, the lightweight weave of our Poly-Crepe-de-Chine allows for excellent air circulation. It is specifically engineered to be light and airy (typically around $60\text{gsm}$ to $80\text{gsm}$), making it a popular choice for summer blouses, flowing dresses, and high-end scarves.
Does Poly-Crepe-de-Chine wrinkle easily?
One of the major advantages of this "silk-look" polyester over genuine silk is its incredible wrinkle resistance. While natural silk creases almost instantly, Poly-Crepe-de-Chine holds its shape and remains smooth throughout the day. This makes it a "travel-friendly" fabric that looks professional even after hours of wear.
