Silk Satin

We love Silk Satin here at K&K. It’s one of the first fabrics we used for our silk scarves and it’ll be the number one fabric that will always stay with us. With silk being a natural fibre made out of silkworm and satin being a type of weave, it makes the fabric feel luxurious, highly silky and soft.  We love that Silk Satin is hypoallergenic, breathable, absorbent, has beautiful lustre and it doesn’t attract static electricity.  All in all, silk will guarantee to look after your skin.

Silk Twill

Silk Twill’s famous characteristics are its diagonal lines created by the weaves. Combining its weaves with natural fibre of silk, this gives the fabric great durability and strength. The texture of twill shows off wonderful colours and an elegant silvery glow can be seen when light hits the scarf. This is what makes these scarves so stunning to look at and not forgetting the benefits of silk combined with it too!

Silk Modal

Loved by many, Modal silk is a wood pulp based cellulosic fibre made from beech tree extract. The cellulose extracted from the beech trees is spinned manually to make it into a beautiful modal silk fabric. Modal silk is believed to be a more eco-friendly alternative for cotton as it uses 10 to 20 times less water in production and also takes less land to thrive and prosper. Modal silk blends in harmony with cotton to give your outfit the smooth texture of silk on the outside and the comfort of cotton on the inside.

Cotton

Cotton is the most popular fabric around the world. It is a soft, fluffy staple fiber that grows in a boll, or protective case, around the seeds of the cotton plants of the genus Gossypium in the mallow family Malvaceae. The fiber is most often spun into yarn or thread and used to make a soft, breathable textile. The use of cotton for fabric is known to date to prehistoric times; fragments of cotton fabric dated to the fifth millennium BC have been found in the Indus Valley Civilization, as well as fabric remnants dated back to 6000 BC in Peru.
