Can you put silk in the washing machine?

Yes, for 27 momme artisan mulberry silk. Use a delicate cycle, cool or warm water (maximum 30°C), and pH-neutral detergent. Do not tumble dry. Lay flat to dry away from direct sunlight. Lighter silk weights (under 22 momme) are more vulnerable to machine washing and may require hand washing.

What is momme weight in silk?

Momme is the traditional Japanese unit of silk fabric weight. One momme equals 4.34 grams per square metre. Higher momme means denser, heavier fabric with greater durability. The standard luxury range is 19 to 22 momme. Premium artisan silk sleepwear uses 25 to 30 momme. Tara Sartoria uses 27 momme throughout.

What makes 27 momme silk different from standard silk?

27 momme silk is 20 to 40% denser than the 19 to 22 momme standard used by most luxury brands. That density means the fabric holds its structure, resists clinging, and survives regular machine washing without degrading. Tara Sartoria silk is of Grade 6A equivalent quality, woven on traditional looms in Vietnam's historic silk villages.

What are French seams and why do they matter?

A French seam is a two-stage construction that completely encloses the raw fabric edge within the seam structure. Both stitch lines bear structural load, making French seams significantly more resistant to lateral stress than single-stitched seams. French seam construction takes two to three times longer per garment. Tara Sartoria uses French seams throughout every garment.

What detergent should I use for silk?

Use a pH-neutral, silk-safe detergent such as Woolite or The Laundress Delicate Wash. Avoid standard laundry detergents (alkaline, pH 9 to 11) and biological detergents (enzyme-based). Both cause protein fiber degradation over repeated wash cycles.

What sizes does Tara Sartoria offer?

Tara Sartoria makes sizes XS to 4XL. Every size receives the same 27 momme artisan mulberry silk and the same French seam construction. Luxury that does not fit is not luxury.

Fabric is soft and silky and luxurious as the hair from a Greek god.

I have had nothing but the most perfect and beautiful experience with this beautiful luxurious brand. The customer service is outstanding. Tara is friendly,, knowledgeable, and goes out of her way to make sure everything is absolutely perfect.
The customer service alone has made me decide to be a lifeline customer.
Now to get onto the beautiful robe. This robe is a silky and soft as the hair from a Greek god. The fabric is supple and luscious, the stitching is impeccable and it has such a nice sheen, weight and flow.
The robe is one of eight items that I ordered, and I am excited to receive the rest.
I also plan on making more purchases in the near future.
If you want phenomenal customer service that is friendly and personable, exquisite, craftsmanship, and quality materials than this is the company for you.
They went out of their way, above and beyond to accommodate my needs, which are a little bit unique as I have a massive hernia and clothing needs to be altered a bit to fit me properly
Not only did Tara listen to what I said, she was the one who suggested making the alterations to make the garments suited just for me.

That kind of attention to detail winds me over hands-down. The love, care and concern she has for her product, and customers shows the integrity that this company has.

And I forgot to mention earlier that my order came with a beautiful navy blue scrunchie that I will absolutely be enjoying , as I love hair scrunchies.
The silk is so much gentler on the hair and it doesn’t rip out hair or leave indentations like regular hair ties.

And bonus that everything comes in a beautifully made silk bag, which can be used to store your items, transport your items or even used for other things that you might have that need to be protected

Permission statement was such a joy to read, and the fact that she empowers other women, donates to these organizations, waste the fabric and everything is ethically sourced just further is my appreciation for this beautiful brand.
