One of the materials clients confuse the most is satin and silk. ✨

While they may look similar, they are actually very different. Silk is a natural fibre produced by silkworms, while satin refers to a weaving technique that can be made from various fibres, including polyester, nylon, or silk.

Silk is known for its luxurious feel, breathability, and higher price point, whereas satin offers a similar glossy appearance at a more affordable cost.

Understanding the difference helps you choose the right fabric for your garment, budget, and occasion. 💫

✨ A Legacy of Fashion Excellence ✨

In this special story, Riëtte shares how her passion and skill in fashion were passed down through generations. Inspired by her mother and grandmother, both highly skilled in the art of dressmaking and fashion design, she grew up surrounded by remarkable craftsmanship and attention to detail.

One of the most treasured pieces in her collection is an 80-year-old garment made by her grandmother. A beautiful reminder of the precision, patience, and extraordinary skill that defined her work. Every stitch tells a story of dedication, artistry, and a family legacy that continues to inspire today.

Fashion is more than fabric and thread; it is knowledge, creativity, skill and passion passed from one generation to the next.❤️

At y2dsign, the very first step in designing a dress for Riëtte is getting to know the client behind the gown. Every design begins with the client’s personality ✨

Understanding who she is, her style, her confidence, and the story she wants her dress to tell. From elegant and timeless to bold and modern, each gown is thoughtfully created to reflect the individuality of the woman wearing it. Because no two clients are ever the same, and neither should their dresses be. 💫
