Timeless, elegant and endlessly versatile, this silk crepe de chine comes in a deep black shade that belongs in every wardrobe. Woven from 100% silk at 16 momme (70gsm), it offers the perfect balance of lightness and durability, creating garments with graceful movement while retaining a refined structure and luxurious feel.
Crepe de chine is one of the most versatile silk fabrics for dressmaking. Its softly textured matte surface provides a sophisticated alternative to silk satin, making it suitable for both everyday wear and special occasions. Perfect for dresses, blouses, skirts, wide-leg trousers and tops, black crepe de chine drapes beautifully and lends itself equally well to minimalist tailoring and flowing silhouettes. This is a limited deadstock fabric, so once sold through it will not be repeated.
