Compared with plain crepe satin has a certain degree of elasticity, not easy to wrinkle, good care, to make up for the shortcomings of pure silk. Suitable for making scarves cheongsam, etc. Its characteristics are good elasticity, comfort, relatively small shrinkage and unique style. This is not 100% silk, adding other ingredients, the fabric has elasticity, drapability is quite good. This depends on how much the silk component accounts for, the greater the proportion of silk, the more the feel to satin, the more beautiful luster.

Double crepe: is made of mulberry silk as the raw material of silk satin, its characteristics, the silk surface showing a two-way fine wrinkles, so called crepe. It is an important variety of Chinese silk production and export, accounting for 15% and 10% more of the total production and export of silk. Suitable for making shirts, skirts, etc.
Electric spinning
Electric spinning is mulberry silk raw weave spinning class silk fabric, with plain tissue system weaving. Because of the use of factory silk and electric silk loom instead of earth silk and wood machine weaving and named. Such as: Hang spinning (produced in Hangzhou). Shao spinning (produced in Shaoxing), Huzhou spinning (produced in Huzhou), etc. Power textile material is tight and fine, feel soft, soft luster, smooth and comfortable to wear. Heavy weight is mainly used as summer shirt, skirt fabric and children's clothing fabric; medium weight can be used as clothing lining; light weight can be used as petticoat, turban and so on. It is a kind of high-grade fabric. Thin power spinning can be used as lining of wool and cashmere coats and silk dresses, etc. The slightly thicker ones can be used as shirts and dresses, etc.
Taffeta
A silk fabric woven from cooked silk. Good luster, delicate and brace, feel like umbrella cloth, especially easy to wrinkle, easy to form permanent creases, so should not be folded and heavy pressure, commonly used in roll packaging. There are plain taffeta, striped taffeta and flower taffeta, which are the traditional varieties of Chinese famous in the world, and also the specialties of Suzhou and Hangzhou in China. In particular, the taffeta produced by Suzhou Dongwu Silk Weaving Factory is collectively known as "taffeta king". It is suitable for making umbrella, skirt and shirt. Before the water is really brave, after the water is unbearable. It is not suitable for silk lovers who are just starting out, and it is not a general problem to take care of. Taffeta production process is complex, the production is not much, only a limited supply, so it is more valuable and rare.

Heavy Crepe
Heavy, meaning repetition and overlap, is crafted by weaving after the combination of multiple twisted threads. A combination of multiple warp and weft threads, weft threads to strengthen the twist of the thick silk, the style is similar to double crepe, but much thicker than double crepe, at least four times the thickness of the common 02 double crepe, mulberry silk thickened crepe type of fabric.
Paramagnetic crepe
Parallel crepe: chemical fiber imitation silk fabric, fabric structure using plain changes, especially shuttle weaving to adapt to the high twist of the silk, in the former warp and weft strong twist conditions, after dyeing and finishing contraction warp and weft silk twist, fabric crepe sense is obvious, the finished product is rich in natural stretch, interweaving point has a firm, not easy to loosen, picking crack characteristics, the fabric surface to leave a perforated point, such as yarn linen style, the product has the advantages of soft, smooth, breathable, easy to wash in addition to In addition to the advantages of soft, smooth, breathable and easy to wash, the product is more comfortable and has better drapability.
The special feature of the fabric is the printing and embroidery patterns, which can be used for making clothes for women of different ages. Later, it was abandoned due to the rise of chiffon, georgette and zo conical series.
Georgette
Georgette (yarn): Georgette is also called georgette, georgette crepe, and the name comes from the French (georgette). It is very similar to chiffon grain, by which I mean chemical fiber chiffon. The difference between silk chiffon and georgette can be distinguished at a glance. It is light and easily permeable, soft and elastic to the touch, with good breathability and drape, slightly convex particles on the silk surface, and a loose structure of holes.
In fact, the specifications of jojoba crepe or more, mainly depending on the thickness of the raw material of mulberry silk, the number of silk threads together, the number of twists and warp and weft density. Therefore, the thickness of ordinary jojoba yarn is different, common 4.5 m, 12 m, here do not talk about the warp and weft density warp and weft line arrangement. Personal preference for heavy Joe, not transparent, drape smooth, not easy to wrinkle, good care.
The earliest georgette is silk georgette, later the emergence of man-made fibers, according to the raw materials used can be divided into silk georgette, rayon georgette, polyester georgette and interwoven georgette, etc.. If only one twist direction (such as S twist) is used for weft yarn, the resulting georgette is called parafiber georgette, which shows irregular wrinkles in the direction of the warp pleat.
Organza
Organza is not necessarily real silk, there is also a difference between chemical fiber and real silk. Many of the organza in shopping malls are chemical fiber because it is difficult to distinguish silk organza from chemical fiber organza with the naked eye. Silk organza has hardness, but not as hard as chemical fiber. Silk organza feels softer, doesn't stick to the skin, and is slightly stiffer, but not as stiff as chemical fiber organza. The disadvantage is that it is very easy to fall apart and hook the silk. The chemical fiber is much better. Organza easily transparent, suitable for wedding dresses and dresses, but must be lined.
Mulberry satin
Mulberry wave satin: is a regular fabric in silk fabric, satin texture is clear, antique, very noble.
Warp knitting
Warp knitting: soft, delicate, soft and comfortable, is a new special knitting fabric, high technology content, is a high-end boutique. This is knitted silk, this fabric is very expensive, and now also a lot of silk knitting is not 100% of the ingredients, but silk mixed with other fabrics woven into.
