Silk: Not as Much Fun As You Think


You know those pretty yellow watered silk sackback gowns with a poloniase finish and yards of pinked ruffles? Yeah. Those kind of dresses can stay right away from me, thank you very much, I'll stick to cotton and wool. And that's all I have to say about that. Oy.

oh come on! The brocades, taffeta and dupioni aren't that bad! It's the charmeuse, satins and chiffons you need to watch out for.

And silk beats out polyester and acetates any day in my book.
