Silk Cotton
What's the difference between silk, satin, and Egyptian cotton?
I want a shiny, sexy sort of fabric, but not one where you're going to stick to the sheets if you're hot and get sweaty. I don't really know anything about these fabrics, but I've seen pictures and I love the way they look. What is the difference? How does each one feel? Thank you!
Silk is totally luxurious and would feel fabulous but it is very delicate and good silk is expensive. Cheap silk will not last long. Satin is much shinier than silk. It can be made of different fabrics, cotton, silk or synthetic. They are all very slippery, but the cotton satin would be more comfortable for nightwear as cotton is more absorbent than synthetics. Egyptian cotton is, well, cotton. It does not shine but is very comfortable.
It is more usually used for sheets than nightwear.
Lots of modern synthetics are shiny and slippery, but if you get hot in bed you may stay rather sticky as they are not at all absorbent.
