The real silk fabric is pure silkworm white woven silk fabric, which is woven with a twill weave. According to the weight of the fabric in square meters, it is divided into thin and medium. According to different post-processing, it can be divided into dyeing and printing. Its texture is soft and smooth, the hand feels soft and light, the colors are colorful, and it is cool and comfortable to wear.
