Reply To: Favorite type of dress too wear

[Sutekina]

Less known fabrics are tencel and tactel. Usually found in shapewear, but can also find a fitted or bodycon dresses/skirts. Often found in some hosiery but sometimes in clothing is polyamide. Super soft and stretchy. Those would be my favourite materials. In Asian sites such as Aliexpress, you’ll find a material type called “ice silk.” Not made of silk but polyester. Feels like silk, stretches like polyamide and durable. Usually comes as transparent pants, panties or bodysuits. Can find in dresses or skirts, but will always be tight fitting and translucent. Be careful about sizing on Aliexpress. Majority of items are Asian sizes which is 1 or 2 sizes larger than USA/Canada. Our M is L or XL in Asia. Also shoe sizes are either EU or Chinese numbers which is similar. For U.S. equivalent, it’s all over the map. I’m a 9, but on Aliexpress, I could be a 7.5 or 8. I’m EU 39, but Chinese equivalent is 40.
