SAY NO TO PURE SILK.........

Butterflies are beautiful, flying insects with large scaly wings. Everyone love butterflies, moths are one among them, these insects live short, but the colour of the flies are beautiful.

As all of us knows the pure silk garments made out of the silk thread, thread ( Silk must be reeled off the cocoon quickly before the pupa begins to rot and taint the thread ) body of what was intended to become the wondrous flying creature slips silently away.

In India without Silk no grand celebration or festival being celebrated, and there is no Indian Marriages without pure Silk textile, even it is costly, people are spending money to make grand on Silk Textile on all important occasions.

It is believed to be grand and gives most high look, small excellent creatures were dying to make us grand look, I personally felt shame of killing the flying creature for expensive textile.

SAY NO TO SILK
Silk is used for suits, coats, trousers, jackets, shirts, ties, lingerie, hosiery, gloves, lace, curtains, linings and handbags. Synthetic fiber such as nylon and polyester are stronger than silk and lower in price. In common with western factory farming techniques, the main areas of silk production are labour-intensive, automated and soul-less. The terminology - stifled for killed and crop for pupae - echoes the denial that we are dealing with living creatures which are awe inspiring when one considers their metamorphic life-cycle. Plant fiber are capable of producing some amazing fabrics. Fiber from the pineapple, for example, may be made into fabrics as strong and lustrous as any silk. Synthetic fiber e.g. nylon produced from minerals, polyester from petroleum spirit (
Terylene, Dacron) or acrylic from oil and coal (Courtelle, Dralon, Orlon, ) also have their place.
