Product details provided by THE VAMPIRE'S WIFE website:
Our very fine quality silk lamé is delicate and should be worn with care. The silk threads achieve beautiful dimension, depth of colour and texture, resulting in lamé that is easily snagged, slight pulls are the character of the fabrication and not considered flaws. We recommend that after each wear any loose threads should be carefully trimmed.
