I tried real silk underwear in hot and humid weather - here's what stood out
Kindly gifted by FEELITS, but all thoughts are genuinely my own
I've been testing these out over the past couple of weeks in different conditions (ranging from cold and rainy, to hot and humid weather), so I wanted to share an honest experience-based review rather than just a first impression.
What I got: The wireless triangle bralette and thong + bikini in two colorways (blush pink and pearl white). The underwear are 100% mulberry silk, with the bras being 95% mulberry silk and 5% spandex for some stretch and comfort.
The bralette: Honestly surprised me. I expected it to feel delicate in a high maintenance way, but it wore like nothing was there. Smooth against my skin, no pinching, no underwire digging in, and stayed cool to the touch even in humid heat. It felt noticeably different from the synthetic satin pieces I've owned before. I kept instinctively going to readjust it and realizing I didn't need to, so it’s kind of the best sign.
The underwear: Beautiful quality and the silk feels luxurious. My one note: size down. I went with a size L and should have gone M. Silk doesn't have the same stretch as regular fabrics so if you're between sizes, pay attention to their measurements. When I reached out about sizing, they were incredibly kind and sent me the correct size - that kind of customer service really goes a long way for me.
Overall: I found the price more approachable than I expected for a 100% silk set. These are really beautiful, feel incredible, and held up well across different wear scenarios (a very long wedding day, a beach day, date night, running errands, lounging at home, etc). Almost 2 months in and they still feel like new.
I'd consider trying another color after seeing how these hold up over more washes. They need to be gently hand washed in cold water and air dried but def worth it though. I've already recommended these to my girlfriends. Took some pics (had to post in the comments) so you can see how beautiful they are!
