silk blend
Luxurious composite textile
A silk blend is a fabric combining silk with other fibers—cotton, wool, polyester, or linen.
Blending reduces cost while retaining some of silk's characteristic sheen and drape: The jacket is a silk blend, not pure silk.
Garment labels typically specify the ratio: 60% silk, 40% cotton.
