The benefits of silk
Silk came today from Ancient China and to this day remains the most noble and mysterious material of all existing. Modern technologies have managed to create artificial silk fibers, but true connoisseurs of all genuine and eco-friendly natural silk are preferable.
Silk has such irreplaceable advantages as:
- Density and breathability;
- Elasticity and special “pull”;
- The structure of the fabric emphasizes its sheen and shimmer;
- True silk practically does not crease, which speaks in favor of its practicality;
- A special “fit”, emphasized by coloring in various colors, gives brightness and originality;
- Natural bactericidal activity;
- Dust capacity and the ability to retain pollution on the surface.
The advantages of this natural material obtained from pupae of silkworm caterpillars can be continued and continued.
Silk has long been a symbol of femininity and sensuality. His ability to dye in bright and rich colors made the fabric at the same time an item for making elegant clothes and an “intimate decoy”, repeating and emphasizing the curves of a seductive female figure.
For a long time, women's silk pajamas have become a symbol of tenderness, femininity and chic. Modern technology and the imagination of designers does not allow silk pajamas to get off the catwalks, and now "pajama" fashion is very relevant, in the dresses of which it is not shameful to appear at a party.

Types of silk
As noted at the beginning of the article, natural silk, made entirely of natural silk fibers, is highly regarded. From about the 17th century, people around the world tried to get silk artificially. But developments and technologies made it possible to create artificial silk only in the 19th century - a material based on cellulose, which in many respects is similar to natural in many respects and properties. This material was called viscose. In addition to cellulose, it contains various components that allow maximum imitation of natural silk.
Natural silk has always been highly valued because of its beauty, pleasant to the touch texture, the ability to instantly take in body temperature, lightness and comfort. Artificial silk has, like a natural, smooth and shiny surface, silkiness, flowing fiber structure, some elasticity, but it is characterized by lower breathability and strength, and the absence of bactericidal activity.
But artificial silk is much cheaper and modern technologies can improve the composition and appearance of the fibers.
Large size pajamas for full
Women's silk pajamas of large sizes are distinguished by a free cut, comfortable fit and seductiveness. The peculiarity of silk is that despite the flowing and tight-fitting effect, this material is able to emphasize the advantages of the figure and hide some of the shortcomings.
You should consider your type of figure when choosing a model of silk pajamas and choose the right color. The ideal model for sleeping and relaxing clothes made of silk for overweight women would be button-down pajamas with long loose trousers, or a long nightgown with a maxi length and a loose fit, as well as a kimono model. Short options for pajamas or shirts with a well-chosen length are not ruled out.
Color
The color palette of silk women's pajamas varies from delicate pastel shades to bright colors.Silk lends itself to dyeing and due to the shiny and iridescent surface, the color seems to “play” on the fabric. Solid silk pajamas are considered to be classics: white, black, burgundy, coffee, red, green, violet, all shades of beige, pink, blue, dark blue.
Along with monotony, a choice of models with a picture. As a rule, such drawings are made in oriental style - bright, multicolor or monochromatic large. It can be images of exotic animals and birds, symbols, oriental ornaments and hieroglyphs. The localization of the picture can be on the back, front, along the hem, throughout the product, etc.
Artificial silk also lends itself to dyeing in all kinds of colors, with a pattern and prints.
An interesting option is the use of contrasting color trim on shirts and negligee. The combinations are diverse - white with black, black and cream, black and red, etc.
How to choose?
When choosing silk pajamas, you first need to decide on the model and style suitable for your type of figure, height. Choosing the right color is up to you. It should be noted that the dark color visually slim, also a small pattern, a vertical strip.
Someone prefers natural silk, someone likes artificial silk. Outwardly, it is very difficult to distinguish natural from artificial silk. To do this, it is necessary to resort to arson of a piece or threads from the fabric - the artificial fiber burns faster and exudes a characteristic smell of burnt paper due to the fact that cellulose is at the base.
Silk, especially natural, requires delicate care. Rayon is not so whimsical to care for, but will last less. One of the advantages of rayon is its poor creasing ability and light ironing due to the content of mixed fibers.
When choosing pajamas, you should pay attention to the processing and quality of the seams, especially the inner ones. Pay attention to shorts and pajama trousers while trying on so that the elastic or the drawstring are not tight. If you choose a shirt with trim and lace inserts, then carefully make sure that from the inside the lace does not cause inconvenience, pricking or irritating the skin.
