Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What does "burnt-out" or "devoré" mean in this velvet silk fabric?

A: The burnt-out (devoré) technique involves chemically removing parts of the velvet pile to create a sheer, patterned design — in this case, a beautiful plant flower motif. The result is a fabric with contrasting textures: plush velvet areas against a sheer silk base, giving it a luxurious and elegant appearance ideal for cheongsam dresses, scarves, and shawls.

Q: How do I order the correct amount of mulberry silk velvet fabric?

A: Each unit/piece you add to your cart equals 1 meter of fabric. If you need 3 meters, simply add 3 pieces to your cart. Your order will be cut as one continuous piece of fabric with no interruptions. The width is always a fixed 120 cm.

Q: Is this silk velvet fabric suitable for beginners in sewing?

A: While this fabric is stunning, silk and velvet fabrics can be slippery and require some care when cutting and sewing. It's recommended for sewists with at least intermediate experience, or those willing to practice on scraps first. Using sharp scissors, fine pins, and a silk or ballpoint needle on your sewing machine will yield the best results.

Q: How should I care for garments made from this silk velvet crepe fabric?

A: We recommend hand washing in cold water with a gentle detergent or having garments dry cleaned. Avoid wringing or tumble drying. Iron on a low heat setting using a pressing cloth to protect the velvet pile. Pre-washing the fabric before cutting is advisable to manage the 8–10% shrinkage rate.
