Schappe silk (or spun silk) is woven from the short fibers that are left when silk cocoons are processed. Although it is made up of salvaged material, it retains the wonderful qualities of silk; it is light, soft, and breathes well. The main difference is that schappe has a soft, matte surface and is not as smooth as classic filament silk. Schappe is the best of the spun silks in terms of quality, without the nubby texture of noil.
This schappe plain weave is similar in appearance to cotton, but has a softer, gentler hand. The fabric is medium light weight, with a moderate drape. Try it for blouses, tops, dresses, or light trousers and skirts.
