THE SILK COLLECTION
This season, the silk women’s clothing consists of 5 silk blouses and 5 skirts. Silk stands for luxury and comfort. Every woman should have at least 1 silk skirt and 1 silk blouse in the closet. You can combine endlessly with a silk garment.
Stretch quality
This season we have opted for a silk quality with stretch . The elastane in the fabric ensures that the garment gives where needed. This elastane prevents the fabric from scoring. You make the garment more durable because it can last longer. The fabric is therefore also a bit heavier, so that the fabric also drapes nicely.
This season we get a lot of positive reactions to our silk women’s clothing . Are you also excited and would you like to order a silk Derek blouse or silk Marlon skirt? Please take a look at our silk collection
HOW IS SILK MADE?
Silk is a natural product that is secreted by certain insects and solidifies on contact with air. The most famous insect for its production is the silkworm ( Bombyx mori ), the larva of a butterfly species . There are also certain spiders that are suitable for sericulture. While the caterpillars make their cocoons with it, spiders weave their webs from it. Both the textile fiber and the final textile are referred to as silk . Silk fabrics are loved for their shine, suppleness and soft texture, but the production is expensive.
silk fabric types
There are different silk types:
- raw silk: silk that has been dyed, but not cooked
- wild silk: silk from an insect other than the silkworm
- ahimsa silk: silk where the silkworms are not killed during production
- damask silk
- crepe silk (corruption of crepe silk)
- taffeta
- samit
- doupion side
We therefore work with a stretch silk, which contains elastane, which means that the fabric lasts much longer.

ENVIRONMENTALLY FRIENDLY
As a raw material for clothing, silk can be a very environmentally friendly product. The mulberries do not require fertilizers, agricultural pesticides or pesticides. Relatively little energy is also required to process the silk into fabrics. Dyes hold very well on the silk and therefore it is easy to work with natural dyes.
Silk is extremely strong and can therefore be recycled better than many other materials.
animal friendly
The traditional process of extracting silk is, of course, not animal-friendly. Therefore, so-called ‘Ahimsa silk’ (also known as peace silk, peace silk or vegetarian silk) is only extracted after the moth has crawled out of the cocoon. This is done on special farms or by collecting wild silk from silkworms that are not grown and kept on a silk farm.
Since the pupa cannot be unwound in one thread, this silk is spun from the silk thread left over after the moth has emerged. This creates a fabric that feels just as luxurious as regular silk, but is less vulnerable and keeps you warm better.
At present, China is the largest silk producer. We therefore produce our silk women’s clothing in China. They are closely followed by India, Japan, the former Soviet Union and Brazil.
SILK SKIRTS
Silk ladies skirts have been a must- have for your wardrobe for a number of seasons . No matter how you combine them, the richness of the material will keep you looking dressed. Sporty, chic… you can wear it in all directions!
chic look
We have made a matching silk Derek blouse with every silk Marlon skirt . Leave the bottom 2 buttons open and tie them just on the waistband of the skirt. You then create the effect of a maxi dress. Combine it with a heel or boot for a chic sexy look. Then casually throw a leather biker jacket over your shoulder…and you are good togo!
comfy look
If you’re going for a more comfortable look, combine your silk skirt with a woolen ladies sweater . The contrast of the 2 materials gives depth to your look. Here too you can wear boots, but also a nice sneaker.
Also try a cool shirt, with an oversized wool cardigan over it . This season we have used the most beautiful wool types available for these woolen items. The wool sweaters and cardigans are made of Baby Alpaca and Merino wool.
