STRETCH KNIT
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.

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 .
