A medium weight smooth and silky fabric with a satiny, lustrous finish. Looks like Charmeuse, but Peau de Soie has a moderately stiff drape. Those who cannot pronounce Peau de Soie (French for 'skin of silk') call this Duchess Satin. Used in close-fitted to loose-fitted styles in evening wear, bridal gowns, and elegant dresses. Sew easily, but pins and needles leave marks. Not much stretch, may be difficult to ease seams.

How do you clean peau de soie?

To clean peau de soie, a delicate silk fabric, it’s best to dry clean it to avoid damage. If you need to spot clean, use a damp cloth with mild soap or a specialized silk detergent, gently dabbing the stained area without rubbing. Always test any cleaning solution on an inconspicuous area first. After cleaning, avoid hanging it to dry; instead, lay it flat away from direct sunlight to prevent fading.
