About Silk
Pure silk has been treasured for thousands of years and not only because it’s beautiful. Soft, smooth and luxurious against your skin, silk is also a natural insulator providing thermal warmth in cooler temperatures, and releasing warmth to keep you cool when it’s hot. Silk is highly breathable and draws moisture away, releasing it into the air, to keep you dry and comfortable. It is well suited to sensitive skin. New Zealand Nature clothing is made from ‘filament’ silk where the long, natural threads are directly unwound from the cocoon of the mulberry silkworm. It’s recognised as the highest quality silk. This versatile, knit fabric is incredibly strong and durable relative to its lighter weight and yields garments with a smooth sheen. It retains its shape, it will not pill and optimises silk’s inherent breathable properties.
The Women’s Silk Turtleneck is made from premium quality, double knit, stretch silk. Ideal for outerwear, it is supremely comfortable and looks wonderful. It has a natural sheen, drapes beautifully and is non-transparent. Double knit silk is durable and easy to care for. Even if it is damaged, due to the interlocking (double knit) weave, it will not ladder (run). It’s crease resistant, machine washable and quick drying.
Care Directions
Please follow instructions on the care label attached to each garment. It is machine washable, please use the delicate cycle with a very mild detergent. For best results, use our Silk Delicates Bag when machine washing. Lay flat to dry avoiding direct sunlight. Please do not tumble dry.
