Which silk for which occasion
Duchesse is the formal weave, made for black tie and ceremony; it holds a corset line and does not crease easily. Georgette is the travel dress, light enough to pack and forgiving at a long lunch. Organdie is the statement, best when the embroidery can catch the light. Pair silk with a silk duchesse bomber for the evening chill. More in silk blouses and the La DoubleJ swing dress guide.
Caring for silk
Store silk away from direct light, hang georgette and fold duchesse in tissue, and steam rather than iron. Water marks show on duchesse, so keep drinks at arm’s length. Our own advice; follow each care label.
