Silk heavy twill is a luxurious and durable fabric known for its unique combination of the sheen of silk with the structure and strength of a twill weave. Unlike other silk fabrics, such as silk satin, it has a distinct diagonal rib pattern on its surface, which is the hallmark of the twill weave.
- Durability and Strength: The tight, diagonal weave makes heavy silk twill significantly more durable and tear-resistant than other silk weaves. It is also more resistant to wrinkling and creasing, making it a practical choice for everyday wear.
- Elegant Drape and Body: While it drapes beautifully, silk twill has more structure and body than lightweight silks. This allows it to hold a shape and is ideal for tailored garments that require a blend of fluidity and form.
- Luster and Feel: It has a soft, subtle sheen, often described as a "silvery glow" or "moonlight luster," which is less reflective than satin. The fabric feels smooth to the touch.
- Distinctive Weave: The fabric's defining feature is its diagonal pattern, created by interlacing the weft threads over and under the warp threads in a staggered, step-like progression. This structure gives it a slightly textured, matte finish that's more subdued than the high-gloss of satin.
Application: Dress, Skirt, Blouse, Light Jacket, Home Decor and many more.
