Sustainable Silks: Why Fabric Choice Matters

April 14, 2024By Sofia Chen

At ARIA, we believe that the touch of silk against skin is one of life's greatest pleasures. However, we also recognize the responsibility that comes with using such a precious material.

The Journey of ARIA Silk

Our silk is sourced from family-run farms that prioritize biological diversity and ethical labor practices. We use low-impact dyes and closed-loop water systems to ensure our footprint is as light as the fabric itself.

Sustainable silk isn't just better for the Earth; it's better for you. Without harsh chemical treatments, the natural proteins in silk remain intact, providing superior thermal regulation and a softer drape.

Taking Care of Your Silk

Longevity is the cornerstone of sustainability. To ensure your ARIA silk pieces last for decades, we recommend:

  • Hand washing cold with pH-neutral detergent.
  • Steaming instead of ironing.
  • Storing in breathable cotton garment bags.
