The velvet is in fact, the shaved part of a fur.<\/p>\n<p>Invented thanks to its cousin Cashmere which is by the way the material that we find in force in our stores for a few months, it is soft and knows how to sublimate us, it is not to displease our sublime skin that it is nicknamed \"swan down\" \ud83d\ude09<\/p>\n<h2>Fabric 2: A <strong>Duchess Satin<\/strong> apple green<\/h2>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-auto\" src=\"https:\/\/www.caftan4you.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/01\/satin-duchesse.jpg\" alt=\"duchess satin\" width=\"300\" height=\"300\" \/><\/p>\n<p>There are several types of satin, they are fabrics with a shiny appearance because the warp thread passes over several weft threads and the intersection points are not very visible.<\/p>\n<p>One of my favorites is Silk Duchess Satin, it is 3 times thicker than regular silk satin.<\/p>\n<p>Luxurious fabric, it is composed only of silk.<\/p>\n<p>The duchess satin is a smooth fabric with the TENSION IN MORE i.e. that its behaviour is stiff (as we say at home \"Ouakaf\") while the classic silk satin like Valentino or crepe is fluid and falling.<\/p>\n<h2>Fabric 3: A <strong>Valentino Satin<\/strong> shiny metallic style<\/h2>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-auto\" src=\"https:\/\/www.caftan4you.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/01\/satin-valentino.jpg\" alt=\"valentino satin\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Silk is a textile fiber of animal origin produced by many insects, spiders and caterpillars of some butterflies (it still makes you want to? lol).<\/p>\n<p>As with leather, it is easy to recognize silk. You just have to ignite a thread of fabric, if it is pure silk, it will burn for a few millimeters and then extinguish by making a small ball of coal with a burned horn (be careful not to burn your French manicure girls).<\/p>\n<p>I chose this fabric with a little metallic color to give pep to my caftan!<\/p>\n<p>These three fabrics are quite easy to find: markets, specialty stores... I'm sure you'll find what you're looking for and for all budgets!<\/p>\n<p>What do you think about it?
