Frequently Asked Questions
Frequently Asked Questions
1. I am in between sizes: M and L, should I order size M or L?
We recommend that you do not size up because our clothing is loose-cut, as silk does not stretch. Therefore, if you are in between sizes M and L, we suggest ordering size M.
2. What does it mean that your silk is 27 momme?
Momme is a standard measurement that indicates the weight of silk. The higher the momme, the higher the weight, quality and consequently durability. Our artisan mulberry silk is 27 momme, which is over 40% more silk than the 19 momme silk often used for mass-produced silk garments.
3. Why does your silk not need to be dry cleaned?
Our silk is produced using traditional artisan methods dating back to the 9th century, allowing it to be washed like it has been for thousands of years, without the need for dry cleaning and its harsh chemicals.
4. Is it true I can machine-wash this silk? How?
Yes, our thicker 27 momme artisan handmade silk is durable and machine washable. Place it in a laundry mesh bag to protect it from other items, then wash it on delicate or hand wash cycle using a detergent and softener for delicates. Tara recommends washing silk with shampoo and conditioner to maintain its lustre and softness. Simply add 1 tbsp of shampoo and 1 tbsp conditioner to 1 cup of water, add to your washing machine, and wash on a delicate cycle.
5. I really dislike ironing! Will I end up having to constantly iron these silk garments?
Tara and many of us here at Tara Sartoria share your dislike of ironing, and that's precisely why we love silk! Silk's lightness allows body heat to naturally soften and remove wrinkles over time. So, in reality, all you need is a quick steam, or none at all if it's sleepwear. Additionally, washing silk with shampoo and conditioner can result in fewer wrinkles when drying.
6. What is the deal with French seams?
French seams are a high-end finishing method used in haute couture and luxury garments. It takes about twice as long to make the garment and more fabric because the seams are sewn twice. But, the result is a durable garment with a polished appearance inside and out.
7. Can I wear this daily?
Yes, our customers report that our silk items are sturdy and durable, making them suitable for daily wear without concerns about tearing.

I can’t say enough nice things about this shirt! First of all, the presentation. It comes in a wonderful little silk bag with information on the company and a silk scrunchie for your hair. Secondly, the material. The silk is heavenly. So soft and silky, it feels amazing on. Most comfortable button down shirt I have ever owned! I am excited to always wear this to my business meetings. Thirdly, the look. It looks wonderful. I got a medium and it fits very loose, but in a sleek way. (I usually wear a medium.) The buttons are super high quality, but thin material so it does not puff out. There is not the standard fold down collar, but instead a trimmed neck, which I actually prefer. The back is a little longer than the front which looks very slimming, and it looks great untucked. It does have creases from being folded, so it needs to be steamed. I wore it out of bag with the creases and it still looks great. This shirt is definitely worth the price tag, if you want to invest in a wonderful and comfortable professional shirt. I absolutely love it.
This is how it arrived. Very wrinkly, but a steam iron helped that fast. The material feels so soft and silky. It is pricey, but you can tell how nice the quality is. I love how the buttons are double so you can have pull and see inside your shirt. The color is beautiful. It says, "pink", but it has a little rose/plum to it. Very pretty. It is a little big on me. Perfect for work so excited to start wearing it during the Holidays too.
I love the fabric, color, finish, cut and design of this blouse. The quality is superior with a beautiful sheen. I was debating between blue and white for quite a while. Both look great.
This shirt is probably this nicest thing in my closet. It is so nicely made. The material is soft. If you’re looking for a high quality silk blouse this one will not disappoint. It came in a silk gift bag. It would make a great Christmas present. It’s gorgeous! Side note I haven’t ironed it because I’m afraid I’m going to ruin it. I’m going to drop it off at the dry cleaners to be pressed to I can wear it.
