Silk is a popular choice for the warm weather not only because it is naturally breathable to help us stay cool and fresh but also because its naturally tightly woven long fibre helps to protect our delicate skin from UV damage.

So is silk scarf warm enough for the cold weather?

The answer is yes because silk warms to our body and its low thermal conductivity does not readily transfer our body heat to the environment, and its naturally tightly woven fibre helps to shield our skin from cold air, thus keeping us warm.

In addition, because it is naturally breathable it keeps us from feeling sweaty when staying indoors or after exercising, so helps maintain a balanced temperature.

Further, silk is not only wonderfully soft and comfortable to skin, but also divinely light to wear under thick coat, keeping you warm, comfortable, flexible, and stylish, unlike the woollen scarves, which can be quite itchy, bulky, and irritating to the skin.

All our silk scarves are great choice to wear under thick exterior clothing, with

• uplifting bright colours from Rainbow Range,

•  elegant and classy floral prints of Blossom Range,

• chic and fun feel from Versatile Range,

• artistic and sophisticated touch of Oil Painting Range,

• and lustrous statement pieces from Luxury Range ...

So is it time of the year to indulge in some much coveted silk shopping?

A youthful, glowing complexion 

• With over 18 different types of natural amino acids, the tightly woven smooth fibres of silk form a natural barrier to keep moisture close to the skin, thus help prevent dehydration of the skin 

• the tightly woven fibres of silk also help protect the skin from UV damage, which accounts for 80 per cent of skin ageing, including wrinkles, and reduces skin cancer risk

• The natural cellular albumen in silk helps speed up metabolism of skin cells and can help maintain healthy young looking skin

Hypoallergenic

• The sericin residue is a natural repellent that keeps the bugs, bacteria, and mould away, keeping you safe from skin rashes, eczemas and stuffy nose, a property that any synthetic fibres, wools, or even some cottons that may contain small, stiff, woven fibres that can cause irritation simply cannot match

Temperature control and moisture wicking 

• An all-climate fabric, silk is warm and cozy in winter and comfortably cool when temperatures rise. Its natural temperature regulating property gives silk the paradoxical ability to keep you cool in summer and warm in winter

• Highly absorbent silk can absorb up to 30% of its weight in moisture without feeling damp and drives quickly. It will absorb perspiration while allowing the skin to breathe to keep you dry and comfortable in any climate, year-round

If a textile article carries the STANDARD 100 label, you can be certain that every component of this article, such as every thread, button, and other accessories, has been tested for harmful substances and that the article is harmless to human health¹. The test is conducted by independent OEKO-TEX partner institutes based on their extensive criteria catalog¹.
