Paradise Silk 100% Silk Knit Women's Sleeveless Tank Top

Lovely for Layering & Warmth
So glad I found these! My old WinterSilks tanks were in tatters but the price had climbed too high to suit me. When I saw these Chinese silk tanks on Amazon I was skeptical but took a chance. And I was so happy with my first Paradise purchase (in black), I came back for more.They're available in so many colors -- I bought them in Ocean, Burgundy, Gray and Royal -- in Medium, which fit me perfectly (I'm 5'5", 120 lbs, 36"). The length (from top of strap to hem) is 23".Typically I wear them as an under-layer but the darker colors are pretty enough to stand alone --with the right bra of course (as the soft drape of the silk telegraphs what's underneath, if you know what I mean). I hope they will add even more colors to their line-up (dark gray, for one).

Beautiful and comfortable but is it real silk? I'm not sure? Just telling me it is doesn't convince me and I'm unable to confirm
Although this was somewhat large for an extra small it fits a medium person I really love it. It is a stretchy form of silk that is almost hard to believe is really silk. I'm not sure how you test for that? I did a little burn on some of the thread to see if it smelled like hair which is a test I saw online and it didn't really have a smell. It is warm and comfortable and I would like to think it is real silk but I wish I had a better way to confirm that. It definitely feels silky but almost more like a polyester blend. It is very comfortable so please don't let this make you not buy it. I wear it everyday almost under my clothes for warmth and comfort. I wish I could find third-party confirmation online that it is definitely silk but other than some reviewers or say they think so and others who say they think not I don't know?

High quality silk
I am very happy with my purchases. These are beautiful silk knit tops. I got all the colors the seller has in stock. The quality of silk is very good. The colors hold up very good after machine wash and dry. They go very well with silk pants or jeans. I highly recommend them. Just for the reference: I normally wear US size S tops, I order Size L from this seller.

My new favorite shirt!
This is a wonderful silk shirt. It fits beautifully, the drape and sheen are lovely. It's soft. Color is true to the photo (I bought the red). The price was quite reasonable. I'm not an expert in fiber content, but I feel pretty confident that the fabric really is 100% silk.For sizing reference, I'm usually a medium (5'6, 140) and I bought a medium. I thought the sizing was spot on.

Very nice
I thought it might be too small because I like a slightly loose fit and Chinese sizes are often small. I got the largest size and it relaxed to be large enough that I can wear one over another for warmth or to be more concealing.Nice, compact, smooth yarn, gently shiny. I ordered again.

Warm but ultra light as a layer and packs well
Nice quality. Silk indeed keeps you warm in winter as an under layer with little weight. I’ll take them on a winter to spring trip since I can wear them as a first layer in winter but then wear it in warmer weather too with an unbuttoned light cotton sweater over it. . I was looking for versatile pieces since I pack light. Brilliant colors and nice seams so they’ll look nice “showing” in Spring. . Not too low cut but just right for a classic look.

Elegant and fits super!
Had been looking for a silk sleeveless top forever, with nice wide straps and armholes that don't gape. This is elegant for evening and casual enough for jeans. Nice medium-weight knit too.

Soft, Light weight, Beautiful color
The fit is just right; it is very soft and light; the color is vibrantly gorgeous. I haven't washed and I could be wrong, but believe it needs to be hand washed. I ironed the packing wrinkles out using a damp cotton cloth on top of the fabric. I needed the color and style to go with a particular jacket that I wear only occasionally, so going to the trouble of hand washing and probably ironing isn't too much considering how much I like the top.

Not made from silkworm thread
My £90+ order arrived in 6 days with a bonus pair of a bamboo toe socks.Wife's bust is 36in, ordered size M (in ocean blue) and it's rether loose fit. Material is very stretchy in a flimsy way, offers no resistance whatsoever, so for tighter fit should've ordered S.Out of whole order this is her least favourite item, least convincing as a silk imitation, very cheap, lustrous shine. Rather small armholes. Made ot of thicker fabric.Least value for the price paid.Very soft and slippery, pleasant to touch fabric, but not silk.Failed both combustion (smelled like burnt paper when lit, real silk should smell like burnt hair/feather) and sodium hypochlorite test (didn't dissolved sitting in a solution overnight).Pictures:1. Natural light2. LED light3,4 Natural light. Notice that shrinkage allowance. Never heard about silk shrinking, non of my silk garments ever shrink!

Super cool for the summer days
To do justice to the seller, it is genuinely silk; mulberry silk is the finest silk in China. The knitting type is not as sophisticated, durable and glossy as the charmeuse weaving though, hence the price. I bought many items for myself and friends from the seller whose service has always been great.

Excellent value for pure silk.
These tops are great value, gorgeous and so easy to wear. The colours are even better than they look online, especially the purple which is slightly darker and richer than the pic suggests. My order took ages to arrive but it was worth the wait. There was an issue with postage but the customer service I received to sort it out was excellent. I have made another order of these tops as I want more and think my friends will like them as much as I do.

Looks good and feels good
I don't know if this camisole is made of 100% silk but it sure looks good and feels good on the skin. Suitable for all seasons, just layer it up during the colder months

far to small, whatever sizing is used, it does not apply to human beings
again having purchased the XL expecting it to fit size 10 it didn't even fit size 8
