The Different Mulberry Silk Grades
Small retailers often worry if luxury fabrics are too expensive for their customers. However, the diversity of mulberry silk allows for various price points. Silk is classified into six grades, from 4A for mass market to 6A for luxury. For detailed specs, check our Docsun Design Pattern guide.
From light 10 momme chiffon to heavy 30 momme satin, the options are vast. For cost-effective solutions, we recommend custom printing on readily available stock fabrics rather than custom dyeing small batches.
Customer Segmentation
High-End Customers ($300+): Value exclusivity and craftsmanship. Ideal for limited edition scarf collections.
Mid-Range Customers ($100+): Seek value and quality. Open to basic styles with premium fabrics.
Young & Emerging Customers ($10-$50): Value sustainability and affordability. Accessories like silk scrunchies are perfect entry points.
