Product Information

Full details

The Lilysilk Feminine Silk Chemise is designed for adults seeking a blend of luxury and comfort for their sleepwear collection. Its primary benefit is the use of high-quality mulberry silk, which offers natural temperature regulation and hypoallergenic properties for a better night's rest. The main caveat is that, like all pure silk garments, it requires specialized care and gentle handling to maintain its delicate texture and finish.

FAQs

Can I put this chemise in the dryer?

No, high heat from a dryer will shrink and damage the delicate mulberry silk fibers. Always air dry.

Is the fabric see-through?

High-quality mulberry silk is generally opaque, though lighter colors may have a slight translucency compared to thicker cotton fabrics.

How often should I wash silk sleepwear?

Silk does not need to be washed as frequently as cotton. Washing every 3-4 wears is usually sufficient unless you have been perspiring heavily.

What size is UK 22?

This size corresponds to a plus-size fit; please refer to the specific Lilysilk size chart for exact measurements to ensure the best drape.

Does this chemise have built-in support?

No, the chemise is designed for comfort and does not feature built-in cups or underwire support.

Troubleshooting

Fabric feels stiff after washing

You may have used too much detergent or a harsh soap. Use a dedicated silk wash and ensure all soap is thoroughly rinsed out.

Visible wrinkles in the silk

Silk naturally wrinkles; use a low-heat steamer to release creases without damaging the fibers.

Minor snag in the fabric

Gently pull the surrounding fabric in all directions to see if the snag pulls back into place. Avoid cutting the snag as this can cause a run.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the longevity of your Lilysilk chemise, follow these care instructions:

  1. Washing: Use a pH-neutral detergent specifically formulated for silk. If machine washing is necessary, always use a mesh laundry bag and a delicate cycle with cold water.
  2. Drying: Never wring out the silk. Gently press excess water out with a clean towel and hang it to dry away from direct sunlight, which can cause colors to fade.
  3. Ironing: If needed, iron on a low heat setting while the fabric is slightly damp, or use a garment steamer.
  4. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place. Using padded hangers is recommended to prevent the straps from stretching or the neckline from distorting.
