HomeBoth linen and silk are luxurious. A linen/silk blend will be expensive but will be durable with an unbeatable beautiful luster.
Lyocell, commonly known by its trade name Tencel, is an eco-friendly type of rayon. It's produced using a closed-loop process, so fewer chemicals are used during its production, and they're recycled and reused.
Given rayon’s environmental and social impacts, you may think it’s a fabric to steer clear of. But, with technology progressing, new rayon fabrics are developed using sustainable processes and practices that include:
Linen fibers do not stretch which causes them to break down when folded or ironed at the same place each time. A 100% linen fabric is difficult to maintain and expensive. However, linen fabrics are very absorbent, cool to the touch, and have a natural luster. Linen is also very durable and strong, particularly when wet. It is considered a “luxury” fabric. Rayon is a synthetic fiber that is breathable and drapes well. It has a beautiful luster and silky feel. However, Rayon easily creases, is prone to stretching, and requires dry cleaning.
