Where we use it:

SATIN

Fabric Description: Known for its luxurious and smooth draping qualities Satin is not only a fabric but a weave pattern made using filament fibers from silk, nylon, polyester, or a blend.   Originating in 12th century China, Arab merchants came to know the city by the distinct fabric it produced, “Zayton”, as they called it.  While it does not breathe as well as natural silk the effect of the fabric is very much similar.  Reach for  a satin accessory when looking to add timeless elegance and soft luxuriousness to your look. 

 

Benefits of using satin: Keeps hair shiny. Prevents hair loss. Acts as a barrier against moisture absorbing fabrics. Reduces frizz.

Garment Care: Hand wash in cold water and rinse well. Instead of wringing dry, lay flat and press 

water out of fabric.

Where we use it:

VELVET

Velvet. If the name alone conjures decadent images of chocolate and champagne, that is because the name has become synonymous with luxury and refinement. If you are looking to top off an ensemble with unrestrained elegance, then choose velvet for a rich, butter smooth finish with slight stretch.

Benefits of using velvet: Breathable, durable, and soft. This fabric is soft and kind on skin and hair. It is extremely breathable and resistant to mold. Velvet has a high fiber count which makes it durable, and resistant to water.

Garment Care: To maintain this lux material, if washing at home, we recommend  hand washing with mild soap, then air dry or simply drop it off at your local dry cleaner. 



LINEN

Feather-light and airy, Linen is a natural fiber derived from the flax plant. Using less resources in its production than, say, cotton, it is considered by many to be a sustainable choice even when it is not grown organically. Offering minimal stretch, it is a cool and versatile option for warm weather and our go-to in the humid months of Summer. 

Garment Care: Hand wash in lukewarm water, or machine wash at the same temperature with similar colors; hang to dry. Iron on low.

DENIM

First produced in France, and now synonymous with American style, Denim is the sturdy, casual, and low-key choice for anyone looking to add a bit of style with ease. Don’t let the thought of starched and freshly pressed jeans scare you, our lightweight denim chambray is soft to the touch and only gets softer with time!

SILK

The crisp and lustrous Dupioni is used in the creation of Fanm Djanm headwraps. Though it offers no stretch, our highly textured silk offers not only a unique look, but a great deal of versatility when creating more elaborate formal headwrap styles. Create a bow, make a flower, or simply spin the silk into your own modest cocoon, the options are endless and the limit’s the sky. 


Benefits of Silk: Silk has an esteemed reputation due to its luxurious feel, instantly recognizable look, and durable, natural origins.  It is a hypoallergenic material, breathable, and does not absorb your hair and skin’s natural oils. It is the pinnacle of opulence. 


Garment Care: We highly recommend dry cleaning this delicate fabric. Dry cleaning will ensure the wearability of our silk headwraps for years to come.


RAYON

hair. Absorbs water and moisture and stays cool in warmer seasons.This fabric is soft and kind on skin and hair. It is extremely breathable and resistant to mold.

WAXED COTTON

Don’t be intimidated. Our wax prints are 100% cotton with a smooth wax finish. Stiff to the touch, time, and a few wears and washes, transform the material into a cloudlike headwrap, perfect for protecting your delicate edges. Suitable for structural styles, expect no stretch but a great deal of sophistication when pairing our wax prints with either formal or informal looks. As we say: first impressions aren’t everything.

 

Garment Care: Hand wash in cold water, or machine wash on cold with similar colors; hang to dry. Iron on the opposite side of the pattern.

KONA COTTON

More than a mere brand, Kona Cotton is a name that reflects quality. This durable, yet lightweight quilting cotton provides minimal stretch and a wide variety of vivid, vibrant colors. 100% cotton, Kona Cotton is the only cotton that bears Oeko-tex certification, meaning no harmful chemicals are used in its production, so you can worry a little less about the environment and focus on styling. In conclusion: if you’re looking to add a pop of color to casual or semi-formal looks, Kona Cotton is the choice for you. 




Garment Care: Kona cotton does not bleed when washed, thus we recommend you hand wash in cold water, or machine wash on cold with similar colors. Though it has minimal shrinkage, hang to dry to maintain the integrity of the fabric. Iron on the opposite side of the pattern.

Faux leather imitates the look and feel of genuine leather while being less expensive, easier to clean, and more resistant to water and stains.

WOVEN COTTON

Smooth and soft to the touch, woven cotton is gentle but durable for all your adventures. It stays put when draped because it is crafted by two threads coming together at right angles in an over under pattern. While a thin, light weight material, woven cotton is very forgiving when layered over locs, braids, and  jumbo twists as it smooths and hides lumps and bumps.


Garment Care: Hand wash separately cold, line dry, cool iron

Benefits of Woven Cotton: Woven cotton combines the trusted durability and lightness of cotton with ready-to-wear softness and zero stretch. 

GAUZE

Fabric Description:

Gossamer-thin, baby-soft, and oh-so-delicate, Gauze is a supple cotton perfect for draping or layering. If you’re looking to escape the heat of Summer, without sacrificing style, look to gauze for a slightly textured, breathable, and perfectly casual alternative to Kona Cotton or Linen. 

Garment Care: Prone to pilling, it is best not to shave lest you run the risk of damaging the material. Hand wash in cold water, or machine wash on cold with similar colors; hang to dry.

Benefits of Gauze: Gauze is sheer and lightweight, lending to its soft feel, breathability and the potential to create heightened drape styles .
