Mulberry Silk
Description
Silk dupioni fabric is a shiny, subtly textured, crisp fabric made from high-quality silk produced by mulberry-fed silkworms.

This simple one-over-one construction gives silk dupioni fabric its crisp texture and excellent shape-holding characteristics. Silk dupioni fabrics are available in both solid colors and iridescent designs, which are created by weaving together differently colored warp and weft threads.
