Silk appears less frequently in lingerie than cotton or polyamide because it is more expensive and requires careful washing. In return, it offers what no synthetic fiber can replace: a smooth, cool surface that does not build up static electricity or cling to the body, as well as a natural ability to regulate temperature.

This collection holds products with silk in the composition - nightdresses, pyjamas, slips, bras and briefs with silk panels, and blended knits in which silk is combined with modal or cotton. Blends cost less and are far easier to wash than pure silk, while keeping most of its feel against the skin.
Washing: 30 degrees on a delicates programme, or by hand in lukewarm water, with an enzyme-free detergent - ordinary enzyme powders break down the protein fibre of silk. Do not wring; dry on a towel and iron through a cloth at the lowest setting.
Dispatch in 1-2 working days, free delivery over PLN 199, 60-day returns.
When buying, check how much silk is in the composition: a few per cent changes the feel very little, while a share above one third already gives a noticeably smoother, cooler surface.
Silk appears in lingerie in two roles: as the main fabric, and as an addition to a knit that changes its character. We have gathered both here - most of what you will find are tights and stockings with a silk finish, alongside bras, knickers and socks.
What does that thread give you? Silk fibre is smooth and close to triangular in cross-section, so it reflects light differently from polyamide - hence the characteristic matt, pearly sheen. It lies against the skin without friction, so it irritates less often and does not build up static the way pure synthetics do. It also regulates temperature well: cooling in summer, holding warmth against the body in winter.
Added silk raises the price, but it also changes how a piece must be washed. Wash in lukewarm water up to 30 degrees, in a mesh bag, with an enzyme-free detergent and no optical brighteners. Do not wring it out and do not dry it on a radiator - heat stiffens the fibre. Lay damp pieces flat on a towel.
If you want softness but not sheen, the alternative is bamboo briefs, equally smooth and cool to the touch. Take your size from the size chart rather than from the label of your last pair, because silk knit stretches less than cotton with elastane. There is more on compositions and care in our guide.
Store silk somewhere dry and out of direct light - UV weakens the fibre and shifts the shade of the dyes. With tights containing silk thread, watch your nails and jewellery as you put them on, because the smooth yarn ladders easily.
Wash it in a mesh bag on a delicates programme at up to 30 degrees, with no spin or on the lowest spin speed.
Silk is the name of a fibre, satin is a type of weave. A satin weave can also be made from polyester - it looks similar but handles moisture differently.
It is a protein fibre with a smooth surface, so it causes very little friction. If you have allergies, discuss your choice with a doctor.
Not always. Some styles are knits with a share of silk. The exact percentage is given in each product description.
