Silk Fabric

Voice: Timeless luxury, elegant drape, natural sheen

Why it's great for summer:

Lightweight and breathable: Keeps you cool and stylish.

Moisture-wicking: Wicks away sweat but dries quickly.

Luxury look: Perfect for elegant occasions.

But consider:

Very delicate: Needs to be washed carefully (usually dry clean).

Not suitable for wet: Sweat will stick and stain.

Pricey: You pay for that bougie texture and sheen.

TENCEL (LYOCELL) Fabric

Style: Soft modernity, sustainable elegance

Why it's a great choice for summer:

Cool to the touch: Has the feel of a silky, almost icy fabric.

Excellent breathability and absorbency: Wicker than cotton.

Eco-friendly: Made with eucalyptus pulp in a closed-loop process.

Machine washable: Much lower maintenance than silk.

But consider:

Less sheen: Softer than silk, with a more matte finish.

Drapes well, but not as fluid as silk.

Prices are still relatively high: but usually cheaper than pure silk.

Final word:

If you’re attending a lavish event, special occasion or high fashion photo shoot, silk still reigns supreme. But if you’re after comfort, style and sustainability — a smart choice for everyday elegance in 2025.

Want to mix up your style? Look for silk, blended — some designers are now doing this to have the best of both worlds.
