Alkena Silk

AL143818

This luxurious chemise is made from the smoothest, softest fabric imaginable- 100% pure organic silk jersey.  Silk jersey is very lightweight, smooth, and shiny-  ideal for wearing directly next to your skin.  These garments are excellent for traveling as they are lightweight and take up very little space.   This chemise has spaghetti straps and a low v-neck and can be worn as an undergarment or as a lighweight nightgown.   

This pure filament silk (organic 'Bio-silk') is processed in a way that preserves the natural luster and smooth, reflective surface of silk, so this baby shirt will have the smooth, 'silky' texture that comes to mind that most people associate with of silk.  This is quite different from the texture of bourette silk or raw silk, from which some of Alkena's other baby products are made.  

Made by Sichuan Alkena, this nightgown is 100% certified organic silk.  Alkena silk is the only silk in the world that is certified organic.  The benefit of organic silk for your baby is that there are no chemical residues left on the finished garment following processing.   

The quality of Alkena silk is second to none, and silk is one of the most ideal options for baby clothing.    Silk is wonderful for the skin, particularly for sensitive baby skin.  Silk is soft, gentle, and truly luxurious.  It is ideal for year-round wear, helping to regulate the body’s temperature and keeping your baby cool during summer and warm during winter.  Silk is both insulating and breathable.  Silk also resists dirt and odors quite well, another reason it’s an excellent choice for babies. 

All of Alkena’s processes, including knitting, weaving, dyeing, printing and sewing are annually inspected and monitored by IMO as against Global Organic Textile Standard.  Sichuan Alkena focuses on dyestuff quality and is environment-friendly. The Alkena dyeing mill utilizes Clariant reactive dyestuff free from heavy metals, toxin and AOX.

Care:   The fabric regenerates itself quickly by simply hanging the garment in the fresh air.  It is easy to wash and it dries quickly.  Turn garment inside out and place inside of a laundry bag or washing net.  This organic silk garment is machine washable at 86 degrees F with a liquid detergent designed for wool or silk (make sure that the detergent is pH neutral).  Ironing is not necessary.

Ethically made by Alkena Silk in Sichuan Province, China.

The silk chemise is exactly what I was looking for to sleep in. I've washed it twice now on delicate and air dried, the fabric is just as lovely as when it arrived.

I want to wear this day and night. It's lightweight, soft, luxurious, I just love this.

Very well made but super thin and see through. It needs to be about 2-3 times thicker.
