Silk is an all season fibre suited to people with especially sensitive skin. It'san excellent fibre for undergarments due to its softness, breathability, and hypoallergenic properties, making it comfortable and gentle on the skin. It also wicks away moisture, helping to regulate temperature and keep you dry.
Tussah silk, also known as wild silk, is a type of silk produced by silkworms (Antheraea species) that are not domesticated and instead feed on leaves like oak and juniper. Unlike the more common cultivated mulberry silk, tussah silk is often harvested after the silkworm has emerged from its cocoon. Tussah silk is known for its natural honey-gold color.

Fit: Tussah silk has little stretch so you can size up if you check measurements and consider the fabric will be less stretchy than a merino fine rib singlet for example.
