FAQs

What does 22 momme mean?

Momme is a unit of measurement for the weight and density of silk. 22 momme is considered a high-quality, durable weight that provides the perfect balance of luxury and longevity.

Can I put this nightgown in the dryer?

No. Heat will damage the silk fibers and cause shrinkage. Always air dry away from direct sunlight.

Is this nightgown suitable for sensitive skin?

Yes. Silk is naturally hypoallergenic and contains proteins that are gentle on sensitive skin, reducing irritation.

Does the red color bleed during washing?

High-quality silk dyes are generally stable, but always wash in cool water and separate from light-colored garments to be safe.

How do I remove wrinkles from the silk?

Use a steamer on a low-heat setting or iron on the reverse side of the fabric using the silk/low-heat setting while the garment is slightly damp.

Troubleshooting

Fabric looks dull after washing

You may have used a detergent that is too harsh or alkaline. Switch to a pH-neutral detergent specifically formulated for silk.

Silk feels stiff or rough

This is often caused by mineral buildup or soap residue. Ensure you rinse the nightgown thoroughly in cool water after washing.

Small snags or pulls in the fabric

Avoid contact with jewelry or rough surfaces. For existing snags, gently stretch the surrounding fabric to help the fiber realign itself.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Because this garment is made from natural mulberry silk, proper care is essential to maintain its sheen and structural integrity. It is recommended to hand wash the nightgown in cool water using a specialized silk-friendly detergent. Avoid using harsh chemicals, bleach, or fabric softeners, as these can strip the silk of its natural proteins. If using a machine, always place the garment in a mesh laundry bag and select the delicate cycle with a cool water setting. Never wring or twist the fabric; instead, roll it in a clean towel to absorb excess moisture and hang it to dry away from direct sunlight. To maintain the fit, ensure you adjust the straps gently before wear to prevent stress on the fabric near the hardware.
