Faux silk
We may be devotees of natural silk, but we know that artificial silk has its place in the sewing room too. That’s why we have made it our business to search out premium faux silk that can serve as an affordable alternative. Imitations made from rayon or Lyocell are breathable and comfortable, much like real silk. And artificial silks made from polyester, though not known for breathability, are very competitively priced and come in a large range of styles and shades.
Try your hand sewing with taffeta or satin (without splashing out for the real thing).
- Artificial silk behaves like real silk when sewing.
- Imitations have the advantage of being easier to care for, making them a good choice for theater costumes and dressy clothes for kids.
