About

A full-length silk satin dress with long fitted sleeves, a deep V neckline and a knotted cutout at the back. Evening dresses in this shape are almost always polyester satin; this one is pure silk. Made in Italy, in bordeaux.

Materials

100% silk satin, made in Italy. Silk satin gets its shine from the weave, unlike polyester satin which relies on the fibre and holds heat against skin.

what it is made of

The Peyton Maxi Dress is made entirely of silk. Silk is a natural protein fiber that breathes and regulates temperature on its own. That composition is what Toxome scores, and it earns 92 out of 100 on the fiber scale, where 100 is cleanest.

FAQ

What is the Peyton Maxi Dress made of?

It is 100% silk.

Is silk safe to wear?

Silk is a natural protein fiber that breathes and regulates temperature on its own. Toxome rates every fiber on what it does to the body of the person wearing it, and publishes the reasoning rather than a badge. The score covers the fiber, not the dyes and finishes a mill adds later.

How does Toxome score clothing?

Toxome reads each garment's fiber composition and scores it on what that fiber does to your body, not on a brand's sustainability marketing. A higher score means a cleaner fiber. Composition is taken from what the brand publishes, so the score reflects the label rather than our opinion of it.
