The Secret to Staying Warm? A High-Quality First Layer

Imagine a winter base layer that not only keeps you warm but also seamlessly blends into your wardrobe. Our collection of silk lingerie and silk base layers do just that. You can think of them as a type of ultra-luxurious, silk long johns, perfect for everyday use, as a ski base layer, or when you’re out for a winter stroll. 

As chilly weather settles in, you can make staying warm a luxurious experience. Below we’ll dive into the seasonal magic of silk, a moisture-wicking fabric that keeps you cool in the summer and cozy in the winter.

The Winter Cocoon: Unraveling the Wonders of Silk Base Layers

Unlike conventional base layers, our silk collection isn’t just about insulation. Instead, it delivers on both form and function. Here are some reasons we love it: 

It’s moisture wicking. Silk naturally locks moisture inside the material so you cannot feel it. That’s great if you're getting some outdoor exercise during winter or skiing. Any sweat that might dampen your underwear or top will be immediately absorbed, rather than hanging around to make you feel chilly after you cool down.  

It isn’t bulky. In the winter, we’re all about layers. Silk will keep you warm without the added bulk, allowing you to comfortably pack on a sweater, coat, and scarf. 

It blends well. Our silk base layer performance top is made of a blend of silk (25%) and viscose (75%), so it never loses its shape. A 100% silk top would result in saggy elbows and a shapeless mess by the end of the day, so we found the perfect balance, combining the luxuriousness of silk with the resilience of viscose.
