What Makes Satin Extra Special

Satin is not just any ordinary fabric, it embodies a luxurious lifestyle. It makes you feel beautiful, sensual, and confident in your skin. And we know how important that feeling is! So we want to share our love for satin with you—and how it can make all the difference when you shop for lingerie!

What is Satin?

Satin is from various materials, including cotton, flax, wool, or cashmere. It can also be from synthetic fibers such as polyester or nylon.

It comes in a variety of weights and textures. The most common is a lightweight satin known as taffeta. This slightly rough surface texture gives it an appealing sheen when worn next to the skin. Lightweight satin is also available in more substantial weights such as velvet or chiffon. These heavier fabrics have a smooth texture that may feel more luxurious than lighter-weight. However, they are less prone to wrinkling when folded over something like a dress shirt collar or cufflinks.

Satin Shines

Satin is a luxury fabric that shines. It has a smooth feel and glides effortlessly across the body. Satins are available in many colors, including white and black, and patterns like stripes or checks. The smoothness of satin makes it an excellent choice if you have sensitive skin or allergies to wool because you won’t start feeling scratchy after just one wear!

Some of the beneficial qualities that make it low-maintenance to care for are:

  • You can be easily washed in a machine (add detergent).
  • Hand washes them by gently scrubbing them with mild soap and water.
  • If needed, dry flat on low heat until completely dry before storing away again. No need for ironing here!

Comfort

This type of fabric is made from silk thread, which is very smooth and soft. You can feel this texture on your body when you wear satin lingerie sets or sleepwear. Silk is also breathable, allowing air to circulate freely through your skin without causing chafing or discomfort when worn next to other fabrics, such as cotton or polyester.

Satin also lasts longer than other materials. Unlike cotton or silk (which can fade after washing), this fabric retains its color and shape over time because of its durable nature.

Satin is healthy for the skin.

Satin is considered healthy for the skin because it is soft, smooth, and gentle on the skin’s surface. Unlike rough fabrics like cotton, satin glides over the skin and reduces friction and irritation, which can lead to breakouts or skin damage. Additionally, satin is less likely to absorb moisture and oils from the skin, helping to maintain the skin’s natural moisture barrier and preventing dryness.

It is from cotton, a natural fiber that feels soft and silky on the skin. It is also hypoallergenic and does not irritate sensitive skin.

Transition

It’s a type of fabric that is worn in many ways and looks good on everyone. It is also known for its versatility, so you can wear it to work or play. This makes satin an excellent choice for layering over your favorite pieces of clothing. It adds just the right amount of softness and shines to any look! If you want something unique, try pairing your new dress with a hint of satin slip under it.

Satin is a versatile material because it will hold up well over time. However, once again, we must emphasize that how much wear each garment sees before needing repairs depends significantly on how often they are worn. 

Fit

It’s a fabric that clings to the body and can be unforgiving. This means that you need to get the right size, even if it is challenging to find your correct size in satin. If you doubt what size will fit your body, we recommend going up one or two measures (if possible).

Satin fabric drapes nicely around curves and fits snugly against the skin without bunching up in creases or folds. The smooth surface feels lovely against bare skin and gives you an extra boost of confidence.

 

More than a fabric; A luxurious way of being.

It will always be in style. It has many different uses, from lingerie to clothing and even accessories. In this day and age of fast fashion, it is hard to find an item made with quality materials that last long enough before it starts showing signs of wear. Satin can provide a luxurious feel while still durable enough for everyday use!
