EKI SILK is known for its soft silks and ethereal chiffons that form delicate drapes and flowing silhouettes. Designed with the modern woman in mind, the collections feature a combination of versatile separates and beautiful kaftans that make her light and easy to travel and relax in.
Our production is made in London in a studio owned by two women, who have worked in the fashion industry for years.
The printers we use are 100% OEKO-Tex Standard certified to ensure that our textiles do not contain any harmful chemicals.
The team of professional designers and seamstresses we work with are very meticulous in the process of sewing our clothes. Each piece is individually cut and will take a few hours to make. Due to the nature of silk and its movement, it is a naturally difficult fabric to work with; and another challenge is to match the patterns with our EKI prints.

Dry clean or hand clean:
By hand: Never use hot water to wash silk
Washing silk should only be done in lukewarm water: above all, do not boil this fabric, nor leave it to soak for more than 5 minutes in soapy water. After soaking, rinse it by hand.
