Duchesse satin (or peau de soie) is the beauty queen of silk fabrics. It is a perennial favorite for bridal and evening gowns, but is also a knock-out in cocktail dresses, corsets, skirts, and jackets. Duchesse is a sturdy, tightly woven fabric with a lustrous, pearly shine (the back is matte) that holds its form beautifully. Some duchesse satins are of varying stiffness along the warp and weft. This fabric is a perfect match for demanding, fantastic creations and as a backdrop for embroidery. If you are looking for something with more drape, choose from among our lightweight and medium weight satins.
With its unique qualities, silk duchesse can make a simple, full skirt into an event. It is so popular for bridal fashions that it is sometimes called bridal satin. Take it up a notch by combining with satin organza, chiffon, lace or tulle.

Care: We recommend dry cleaning this fabric at a reliable dry cleaner. In our tests this fabric stood up to gentle hand washing, but lost some of its stiffness. If you risk hand washing, use lukewarm water and a delicate detergent for woolens; do not wring or squeeze dry; block dry on a flat surface. Dry iron on the back on the lowest setting. Avoid water droplets.
