4 Ply Silks
Description
Four ply silk is a heavier version of silk crepe made with four ply yarn.
A four ply yarn is made from twisting together four individual yarn strands.
The resulting fabric is medium to heavy weight, smooth and flat, with a crepe
finish and a good deal of lustre. The fabric tailors and drapes beautifully and
is a favorite for bridal usage.
General Uses
4 ply silks are most frequently used for bridal gowns, semi fitted
garments, dresses and suits. Fabric sews easily, but shows pin holes and
ravels fairly easily. We also have a 45 mm (momme) thick 4 ply silk that
is the Cadillac of silks.
Fabric Care
Washable, but dry cleaning is recommended for plaid, jacquard, iridescent
or printed versions. Note: pre-made 4 ply silk garments most likely
have not been washed and may pucker if laundered. Best to Dry Clean off-the-rack
items, or wash with extreme care. Click on the fabric care buttons to the
left for more information on washing four ply silks.
