Why buy Silk Dresses?

Silk is a natural protein fibre spun by silkworms. It is light, strong for its weight and naturally temperature-regulating, which is why a silk dress feels cool in summer and comfortable under a layer in winter. Conventional silk is harvested by boiling the cocoons; peace or ahimsa silk lets the moth leave the cocoon first, and some brands use recycled or deadstock silk. Look for that in the product details if it matters to you. Hand wash cold or dry clean as the label says, and keep silk out of direct sun to protect the colour.
