This is a 15 momme mulberry silk charmeuse sold by the yard, 44/45 inches wide at about 90 GSM and 0.20 mm thick. The charmeuse weave floats weft yarns over the warp, giving one smooth, lustrous face and a softer matte back with fluid drape. It suits sewists making blouses, dresses, scarves, lingerie and linings who want real silk rather than polyester satin. Against 19 momme and heavier silks it is lighter and drapes more but creases and snags more easily; against polyester satin it breathes better and feels cooler. Buyers rate it highly, though some note the lighter weight shows needle marks and needs careful handling.

Buyers rate this charmeuse highly, praising its sheen, drape and genuine silk hand. A few mention that the lighter weight wrinkles easily and is tricky to sew without marks.
Silk charmeuse is a soft, lightweight fabric with a smooth, lustrous surface and an elegant drape. It is made from mulberry silk, with fine, smooth and consistent fibers.
The silk is woven in a charmeuse-style construction. The weft yarns float over the warp yarns, which gives the fabric its distinctive sheen.
Use it to sew lightweight garments such as blouses, dresses, scarves and lingerie. It also suits accessories, bag linings, curtains and other decorative projects.
