Blending fibers allow fabrics to take on properties of both joining counterparts to achieve uniquely desirable characteristics.
Cashmere is one of the most luxurious fabrics, with desirable drape, softness and wrinkle resistance. It is up to three times more insulating than regular wool, with lofty fibers that can be tightly knit into warm and lightweight fabric. Like all wool based fabrics, it wicks moisture and allows skin to breathe. Cashmere is considered hypoallergenic, since it does not have lanolin. While more delicate than other wools, cashmere garments will not lose their shape if properly cared for. This is due to the fiber’s natural stretch that allows garments to move with you and recover after wear.
Silk is known for its luxurious drape, luster and ability to take on rich colors. It is the strongest natural fiber and has a low density, creating light and comfortable fabric. Silk’s resilient elasticity maintains garment shape, and its smooth surface is resistant to attracting dirt. Silk keeps you cool in warm weather, and provides insulating warmth in cool weather.
