Quince Washable Silk is 100% mulberry silk treated and finished so it can be machine washed on a delicates cycle in a mesh bag with cold water and a silk-safe detergent — no dry cleaning required for routine care. Most silk competitors require dry cleaning, which adds significant lifetime cost. The Washable Silk treatment preserves the smooth hand-feel and luster while making real-life laundering practical.

Momme (mm) is the standard unit for silk weight — higher momme means denser, more durable silk. 16-19 momme is lightweight (good for camisoles, scarves); 22-25 momme is mid-weight (best for blouses, dresses, sheets); 25+ momme is heavyweight (for pieces meant to last decades). Quince Washable Silk runs 22 momme — the sweet spot for durability while keeping the natural silk drape.

Yes — silk is naturally temperature-regulating, which is one of the reasons it has been a luxury sleepwear fabric for centuries. The smooth weave allows airflow without trapping heat the way flannel or fleece does, and silk wicks moisture away from skin. Hot sleepers often find silk pajamas significantly more comfortable than cotton in warm bedrooms.

XS through XL across most styles; some pieces extend to XXL. Each product page lists exact sizing and measurements. Silk pajamas typically run true-to-size; robes are usually one-size or come in S/M and L/XL. The Quince size guide includes silk-specific fit notes.

Yes — silk is naturally resistant to dust mites, mold, and many common allergens. People with allergies, asthma, or sensitive skin often find silk sleepwear gentler than synthetic blends or absorbent cottons that hold onto allergens. Silk also produces less friction against hair and skin than cotton or linen, which reduces hair breakage and skin creasing during sleep.

For Washable Silk: machine wash cold on delicates in a mesh bag, with a silk-safe detergent. Skip fabric softener and bleach. Hang to dry or lay flat — never tumble dry on heat (which can shrink and damage silk). For wrinkles, use a low-heat iron from the back side or a handheld steamer held a few inches away. Avoid direct sunlight for long storage (UV fades silk).
