Fabric
History
Satin is initially made from silk during medieval China.
Only worn by royalty, became the chosen fabric of the royal robes because it was expensive. In the 12th century, Italy introduced Satin to western countries.
It was the 14th century, it became popular across the rest of Europe and is still considered a rich and very luxurious fabric.
Surface
Satin Silk has a soft, shiny finish and a lustrous feel.
It has a glossy surface on the front side and a dull surface on the backside.
Since the fabric is slippery in nature, Satin Silk is difficult to sew.
Hold
Satin Silk is highly repellent to moisture. The water glides through the surface of the fabric.
The fabric doesn't attract static elasticity.
Crease
Satin is completely wrinkle and crease-resistant.
The fabric is smooth and falls immediately.
Transparency
Satin Silk is fairly breathable.
The fabric unfolds its charm and pleasing luster making the dress more captive.
Drape
Satin Silk has a beautiful drape.
The fabric weaves create a drape that is perfect for evening wear.
Stretch
Satin Silk is flexible and elastic.
Consequently, able to be formed around compound curves.
Production
Satin Silk is more of a weaving process rather than a fabric itself.
The production of Satin Silk is biodegradable, involves sustainable practices, consequently, environmentally-friendly.
Maintenance
Hand Wash
Hand washing is highly recommended.
Avoid the use of bleach or any other harsh chemicals.
Use a mild silk-friendly detergent and fabric conditioner.
Soak it in a tub filled with cold water (no more than 20 minutes), and move it around to let the soap distribute evenly.
Gently press the dress while still wet to remove excess water and rinse.
Machine Wash
The dress buttons, belt buckle, hooks, and eyes are sensitive to machine wash.
For their longevity, hand washing is highly recommended over machine wash.
In the case of machine wash, avoid the use of bleach or any other harsh chemicals.
Turn the dress inside out. Use a very gentle detergent and select the delicate cycle.
The water temperature should be cold and the spin is on low.
Dry Cleaning
Dry cleaning is preferable for greasy stains.
Air Drying
Use a flat surface to dry on a clean towel.
Avoid drying it in the dryer.
Do not hang or wring, as the dress can lose shape easily.
Shrinking
Satin Silk can naturally shrink. The fabric is pre-washed and shrunk before sewing.
Ironing
Use a steamer to get the creases out.
Avoid ironing wet dress or spraying to prevent water-stains.
In the case of ironing, let it completely dry.
Flip the dress inside out and set the iron to low heat.
Put the thick terry towel or cloth between the silk and the iron.
