During this difficult time of social distancing and self-isolation in the UK, many sewing enthusiasts are looking to use their time productively by working on exciting new projects.

If you will be spending a lot of time with your sewing machine in the weeks to come, what better opportunity to craft a garment that is truly beautiful and inspiring?

For example, if you are considering making a dress, why not elevate your design with a gorgeous silk crepe de chine or tasar? There’s a timeless quality about silk fabrics that takes fashion to the next level.

Whether you’re creating a day dress, something special for the evening or even a bridal gown, silk is a great choice for a comfortable yet luxurious garment that is sure to turn heads. Warm in winter and cool in summer, silk adapts well to changes in body temperature and has an ease of movement that adds elegance to any design.

And there’s no need to wait for the end of social distancing to enjoy the luxury of silk. If you’re working from home and have a fondness for the comfort of pyjamas, you could treat yourself by sewing a bespoke pair made from finest silk satin or twill – the ultimate in glamourous nightwear!
