What fibres are used to make satin?

Satin is a type of weave rather than a fibre. It can be made from polyester or nylon, giving a smooth, glossy surface and a lustrous, elegant appearance.

Satin is a similar fabric to silk and chiffon, recognised by its shiny texture; however, silk is naturally soft with a subtle sheen, while chiffon is lightweight and slightly rougher.

How should I care for a satin dress?

Always check the care label for specific instructions on how to treat and care for your satin dress. With proper care, you can prevent premature wear and fabric damage, keeping your delicate satin pieces looking their best.

Can satin be machine-washed, or should it be dry-cleaned only?

Satin can be washed using a cold gentle machine cycle, although a cold hand-wash is generally safest as it does not require a rigorous machine cycle. The care label will indicate if a dry-clean is recommended.

What is the best way to remove stains from satin?

The best way is to treat stains gently and quickly. Blot the stain, do not rub, with a clean cloth, and use a mild detergent or stain remover suitable for delicate fabrics.

How do I prevent satin from snagging or losing its shine?

Store them on padded hangers when not in use and avoid overcrowding in your wardrobe as this can cause the dresses to easily wrinkle and lose its seamless detail.
