Senbism™ KN is a new type of textile created out of Toray's utmost respect for silk. We have created a silky synthetic fiber material that comes as close as possible to the high-quality luster and light bulkiness of natural silk by reproducing the structure of silkworm thread through our state-of-the-art NANODESIGN™ technology. Senbism™ KN has functionality and synthetic fibers that give it a tailored look to provide the finest silk experience possible for any scenario.
We used Toray's research, which has produced a variety of products in the SILLOOK™ series, and our innovative new NANODESIGN™ technology, which enables us to design thread cross-sections at the nano scale, in a quest to understand the fiber structure of silk, and achieved a random arrangement of fibers that disperses and reflects light and a unique airy silk structure.
Senbism™ KN, which has both the high-quality texture of silk and the high functionality that only synthetic fibers can provide, is useful in many scenarios one would never attempt with natural silk. Live every day as if it were special by adorning it in exceptional, comfortable style. We are expanding fashion possibilities starting with silky textiles you can wash at home.
Since Senbism™ KN fibers are more elastic than silk and traditional silky synthetic fibers, fabrics have movement even after they have been tailored. Senbism™ KN, which sews easily and looks great, frees designer creativity, satisfies wearers’ needs, and achieves more beautiful and complete style.
High-quality textiles born from thread with high-quality gloss and light bulkiness. These textiles have typically been expressed using traditional silk, but reproducing them using Senbism™ KN provides both delicate visuals and various functionality at the same time.
Wearing Senbism™ KN lets you enjoy exceptional feelings of elation and relax comfortably.
The bulky and contracted structure of the thread achieves a delicate sense of density and bulk even when woven precisely at a high gauge, it also produces beautiful shadows, elegant luster and drape when it flutters.
The fabric does not become stiff even if pleated, it holds pleats well and is easy to care for as it can be washed at home. Although it reproduces the texture of fine silk, caring for it is extremely easy. A silky knit series we recommend for everything from high-quality cutsews to dresses.
A wrinkle-resistant, comfortable, stretchy silky knit material given a light, mild, high-quality texture and bulk by weaving polyurethane with hard twist yarn.
It has bounce and a tailored look, so rounded forms are possible. It can be used not only for pants, but also for a wide range of items such as matching outfits, dresses, and designer tops.
The fabric can be granted various types of functionality in post-processing that are only possible because it is polyester.
For example, even silks that stain when they get wet can be made water repellent with Senbism™ KN. It can be worn with confidence even on rainy days. We studied silk to create Senbism™ KN, a material that surpasses it.
