Silk and fluffy – two words rarely heard in the same breath. Yet it is precisely this unexpected combination that makes our new capsule collection so special. We have combined the timeless elegance of 87% tussah silk and 13% spun silk with innovative knitting techniques, creating a wearing experience that redefines luxury.
Why silk is more than just a luxurious fabric
Silk is among the finest natural fibers in the world – and for good reason. For millennia, it has fascinated people with its unique properties that distinguish it from all other materials.
The natural air conditioning for your skin
The secret lies in the structure of the silk fiber itself. Silk consists of fine protein fibers that enclose microscopic air pockets. This natural insulation makes silk a true all-rounder: it has a cooling effect on warm days and a gentle warmth on cooler days. You might be familiar with this from silk bedding – we've now incorporated this very temperature-regulating property into sweaters that you can wear all year round.
Luxury with history
Tussah silk, obtained from the cocoons of free-roaming silkworms, has always been among the most precious natural fibers. Its characteristic, softly shimmering luster and finely textured surface lend each piece a subtle, distinctive elegance. Spun silk further enhances the material with exceptional softness and a particularly harmonious drape. For our sweaters, we use only select tussah silk combined with spun silk – a touch of luxury that captures the beauty of nature in its most exquisite form.
The innovation: How does silk become fluffy?
This is where it gets interesting, because silk is traditionally known for its smooth, glossy surface. Our sweaters break with this convention through a sophisticated manufacturing process:
Step 1: Volume through special spinning
The fibers of Tussah silk naturally possess a softly textured surface and greater fullness. A finely tuned spinning process preserves this volume while elegantly refining it – resulting in a yarn that combines airiness with suppleness.
Step 2: Knitting technique for three-dimensional lightness
An exclusively developed knitting technique allows the silk to fully display its natural elasticity. This creates a fabric with depth, transparency, and an incomparably soft drape – the perfect foundation for its subsequent fluffiness.
Step 3: Gentle activation of the fibers
A specially developed finishing process transforms the knitted material: through a precisely calibrated washing and drying technique, the fine silk fibers stand up delicately – without affecting their structure. The result is a luxurious, silky fluffiness that can be seen and felt: warm, soft, and feather-light.
Feels like a second skin
Imagine slipping into a cloud. That's roughly what this sweater feels like. The brushed silk caresses your skin with an unparalleled softness.
- Feather-light : Silk weighs significantly less than wool or cotton while providing the same warmth.
- Breathable : The fiber naturally regulates moisture and prevents sweating.
- Skin-friendly : No scratchy fibers, no irritation – ideal even for sensitive skin.
- Smooth : The sweater drapes beautifully without slipping or pulling.
Compared to wool, silk does not itch; unlike cotton, it cools in the heat; and unlike synthetic fibers, it breathes completely naturally.
Versatility meets elegance
A fluffy silk sweater is the perfect example of that modern understanding of luxury.
Pair it with business trousers for a sophisticated office look with a twist. Wear it over a silk dress for a cozy yet feminine evening style. Or indulge in pure comfort on the sofa – this sweater can handle anything and always looks effortlessly beautiful.
Care: How to keep your silk beautifully beautiful
Silk is more robust than many people think – if you treat it properly:
- Hand wash or gentle cycle : Use mild silk detergent at a maximum of 30 degrees.
- Never wring : Gently squeeze out excess water and roll out in a towel.
- Dry flat : This is how the sweater retains its shape.
- Iron at a low temperature : Turn inside out and preferably while still slightly damp.
With proper care, this sweater will become a long-lasting companion that will only get more beautiful with age.
