Hayden Christensen (Ep. 2 Outer Tunic) Brown Raw Silk

Its nubby texture and incredible drape are the most distinguishing characteristics of this material. A sample of an Outer Tunic of this style is shown above.

PRODUCT INFO:
This fabric is not colorfast so we highly recommend that you wash it separately from other garments when laundering. We also recommend that you use a gentle detergent to maintain its useable life. If properly cared for, silks can be heirlooms which can be passed down to generations as evidenced by historical artifacts we’ve seen on display in museums.
Silks should be washed the same way you wash your hair. You wouldn’t use a harsh laundry detergent on your scalp and likewise you shouldn’t use it for silk either. We suggest using a natural soap that lacks synthetic cleaning agents or a formula made specifically for silks.
A gentle cycle is recommended for washing (or hand washing/ steam cleaning is preferred) and low heat in the dryer. Alternately it may also be preferable to lay flat to dry and then in the dryer on LOW heat for one minute to soften.
