What is the total number of silk clothes you already have? Are you used to sleeping on silk bedding at night? The reality is that most of us do not own many items made entirely of silk cloth. Natural silk is an expensive fabric. However, I believe the expensive rate is totally justified. Because silk cloths have several benefits.

Silk is very soft and pleasant to touch, and the surface of the silk fiber is very smooth. Even delicate skin is not irritated, and you perceive as if you are not wearing anything at all. It gently massages your body. I wake up feeling like I slept on a cloud whenever I sleep on a silk sheet and pillowcase.

Silk is made up of only natural substances, so it can be said that it is pure and does not contain any chemicals. You can also observe similarities between human hair and silk fibre. The silk composition includes protein 97%, fat 3% and wax. Approximately 18 amino acids are present in the silk that are beneficial for a person’s skin.

Silk is the most hypoallergenic among all fabrics, which means it is the least likely to cause allergic reactions. It resists allergens like mold, dust mites, and fungus.

Silk helps to prevent skin from losing moisture. Moreover, it also acts as an antiaging. It prevents flaky, dry skin conditions by locking moisture in, ensuring that it remains on your skin.

You will feel cool by wearing silk on hot days because of the property of silk to preserve your body heat in the cold. Silk will provide thermal balance by appropriately adjusting to the body temperature.

It is the property of the silk that it quickly dries and is an excellent absorbent. It absorbs up to 30% of its own weight in moisture while remaining dry to the touch. Simultaneously, the expansion of silk thread and efficient air circulation facilitate quick evaporation of excess moisture. That’s why silk fabric absorbs sweat while allowing the skin to breathe.

Silk bedding keeps your hair hydrated and tangle-free; your hair does not bunch and twist on silk pillowcases, rather gliding over the surface.

Because silk does not readily produce a static charge, it does not stick to your body or iron when you press it.

Silk is quite flexible. It’s suitable for a wide range of applications, including casual apparel, soft bedding, classic decoration items, formal dress, evening wear, and sometimes parachutes and carpets can be made from it. You can sew almost any type of clothing out of silk fabric. It nicely absorbs color and blends well with natural fabrics such as cotton, wool, and linen. In the past, China knows the secret of silk production. Nowadays, many countries, including Brazil and India, produce silk fabric in India, Brazil and other nations; China is still the world’s greatest silk manufacturer.

I adore natural silk and would want to motivate you to do the same. It’s been called “Queen of Textiles” for thousands of years since it’s such a lovely, breathable, and elegant fabric.
