Estelle 100% Silk is a pure raw (bourette, noil) silk yarn in tweed and solid colours. This type of Silk looks and feels more like cotton with a scent of silk fiber (similar to Eri silk), than traditional, shiny silk yarn. It is very absorbent, and is suitable for summer outfits: sweaters, tops, jackets, accessories. As all silks, it is very durable and comfortable in wear.
• For information: Noil is a short fiber, removed during the combing of a textile fiber and separately spun into yarn, its nature is not to be lustrous.
