Among our favorite materials, crepe stands out for its elegance and versatility. The origin of the word "crepe" comes from the Latin crispus, meaning wavy. This evokes the twisting of the threads during the manufacture of the fabric. Initially, crepe was woven from silk before becoming more popular with wool, cotton, and more recently, polyester and viscose. It is the fiber that gives crepe its feel.
Crepe, sometimes matte, sometimes slightly shiny, comes in a multitude of variations, from light and fluid Georgette crepe to refined, double-sided satin-backed crepe. It adapts easily to structured cuts as well as floaty silhouettes, making it a must-have in clothing, both winter and summer. In our country, it comes in several varieties, each with its own specificities and uses.
Chinese crepe
With its delicately lustrous appearance, crepe de chine is a favorite for evening wear. In the Middle Ages, it was the fabric of choice for Chinese imperial families. Even today, it remains a symbol of elegance and refinement.

Crepe maintenance:
The composition obviously influences the best practice to adopt. Crepes made of natural fibers (silk, wool) require hand washing. Polyester can be machine washed at a low temperature.
It's elegant and fluid. Durable and stunning. Crepe and its variations make it a wardrobe staple, ideal for everything from workwear to spring dresses.
