A luxurious, lustrous and smooth silk fabric. This is the 'Rolls Royce' of satins and is sometimes referred to as 'princess satin'. This flamboyant pink coloured fabric is perfect for a garment that will ensure you make an entrance at your next event. Duchess satin is often used for couture gowns because it has a firmer handle and is suitable for garments with a sculpted and flattering fit. Create a striking evening dress with a fitted bodice or a midi skirt fitted at the waist and hips, before flaring sharply at the hem.
