Finally! This gorgeous purple silk charmeuse will captivate you, as you take eye-catching to a whole new level with this incredibly beautiful, stunningly colored fabric. Shiny on one side and muted on the other, it's perfect for making absolutely splendid formal and semi-formal outfits, luxurious everyday wear (harem pants, anyone?), and fancy crafts (eye pillows, sachets, etc). You'll love the feel and how sumptuously it drapes. Also available in natural, black, autumn, and sand. Some people make the most opulent duvet covers and curtains imaginable with these hemp silk charmeuses, and you could too!

It's hard to show how shiny this fabric is and how wonderfully it drapes in a small picture, so we've included a larger view of some of the charmeuses to the left. This is a deep purple that doesn't convey well over the computer; we encourage you to request a swatch to get a true feel for the color and fabric.

Made from tussah silk and naturally-grown hemp raised as a companion crop in the fields of China without the use of pesticides or chemical fertilizers. The vast, vast majority of the silkworms are allowed to work their way free of the cocoon and continue their lives; the few that don't end up as highly-prized delicacies for the fiber workers. Farm and mill workers are paid a fair wage for their work, receive benefits, and have a significant amount of say about their jobs. Purchase this fabric knowing you are making a difference!

At 7.4 ounces per linear yard, this fabric weighs about 4.8 ounces per square yard.
