What kind of material is crêpe de chine?
Crêpe de chine is a lightweight fabric, with a subtle texture and a gentle, graceful drape. It is one of our greatest hits.
The shiny silk of the warp contrasts the matte finish of the weft in silk crepe high twist yarn, spun alternating 2S-2Z. The twist gives a “bubbly” orange-peel look, typical of this fabric.
It is an elegant, tasteful and versatile fabric and is one of the easiest silks to sew – it doesn't shift so much thanks to its friction and texture.
For which garments is crêpe de chine suitable?
Perfect for daywear as well as evening-wear, every designer loves and uses it. Particularly enhances draped dresses.
Suitable for blouses and tops, dresses, wide-leg trousers and lingerie.

Silk Crepe de Chine’s Fluidity
Silk Crepe de Chine possesses a supple and fluid drape, allowing it to harmoniously adapt to the body’s contours and create soft, natural folds. When used in garment construction, it drapes lightly, forming delicate folds that add movement and fluidity to the silhouette.
The drape of Silk Crepe de Chine is often described as elegant, airy, and sensual. It imparts a sophisticated and subtly undulating appearance to clothing. When worn, it gently follows the body’s movements, providing a sense of fluidity and lightness.
