Our Fabrics
SILK-the most popular fabric in designer christening wear. Silk is never pure white.'White' or 'Diamond White' silk is smooth and bright and has few slubs or marks. Dupioni-rough silk-has a file texture, and may have slubs and other irregularities. Stay away from the dupioni if these things bother you. Silks have an elegant drape, and timeless beauty.
SHANTUNG-we use the description shantung to describe a man made fabric (polyester) that is essentially imitation silk. We use a white shantung that has a file texture, is durable, comfortable, and even washable. It has a great look, and for many customers it is the best of both worlds-white, looks like silk, easy care.
MATTE SATIN-a plush white fabric with a dull satin finish, also called bridal satin. This fabric really pops.
