About

The label's signature bias dress in 100% silk, OEKO-TEX certified, in a painterly floral. Cut on the bias so it skims rather than clings, and silk is what lets it do that without static.

what it is made of

The 1996 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. This piece carries OEKO-TEX Standard 100, which covers how the fiber was grown and processed, not just what it is.

FAQ

What is the 1996 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.
