Origin & characteristics
Silk taffeta is a plain-woven silk fabric with a tightly woven construction that creates its signature crisp hand and structured appearance. The dense weave gives the fabric excellent body while maintaining a smooth surface with a refined, subtle sheen.
One of the defining characteristics of silk taffeta is its distinctive rustling sound, known as scroop, which is created by the tightly woven silk fibers. Depending on the fabric weight, silk taffeta can range from lightweight and crisp to heavier qualities with impressive volume. It holds pleats, folds and tailored shapes exceptionally well, making it ideal for garments that require structure and architectural silhouettes.
As a natural silk fabric, silk taffeta is breathable, comfortable to wear and absorbs dyes beautifully, producing rich colors and elegant iridescent effects in yarn-dyed qualities.

It is ideal for:
Bridal gowns and wedding dresses
