SILKEN STORIES
Shanghai Tang Iconic Fabrics Series
Initially only reserved for the emperor and the highest nobles, this prized treasure eventually flowed from the ‘Middle Kingdom’ through Persia to Europe and North Africa along the caravan routes that became known as the Silk Road.
Today, silk remains one of the most precious natural fibres used in textiles. Shanghai Tang continues this legacy of creation, combining modern designs with the splendour of ancient China.
