charmeuse
Shiny lingerie fabric
Charmeuse is a lightweight fabric with a satin weave—shiny on one side, matte on the other.
Usually made from silk or synthetic fibers, it drapes fluidly and feels luxurious against the skin.
Charmeuse is common in lingerie, evening wear, and blouses: a charmeuse nightgown, silk charmeuse lining.
