Silk is an ancient luxury that caresses the skin as lightly as a feather. As a natural material, silk insulates heat well, efficiently absorbs moisture, and breathes, so it doesn’t feel hot in warm weather or cold against the skin in chilly conditions. Strong, soft, and durable, silk repels dirt, so when well cared for and stored, a high-quality silk garment will delight its owner for years. The material of these second-hand clothes and accessories from Emmy’s selection is either 100% silk or a blended fabric containing silk. Also see merino and cashmere and linen.
