A story of softness and transmission

Sara, creator of La Caressette, is passionate about the heritage and craftsmanship of mulberry silk from her country of origin.

“When I was little, I spent hours watching my mother carefully choose her silk scarves. She had an impressive collection, and every piece seemed to tell a story.”

“She wore a bright scarf on sunny summer days and a more understated, elegant pattern for special occasions. I was fascinated by this daily ritual of matching each scarf so carefully to her outfit.”

The birth of La Caressette

From emotion to creation

“I especially remember the day she gave me my first silk scarf for my 18th birthday. The surprise of opening the gift and the feeling of soft silk around my neck were unforgettable. That scarf, a true caress, has stayed with me ever since.”

After an international journey and settling in France, Sara began a career in fashion. Still captivated by silk accessories, she looked for pieces combining quality, artistic strength and an attainable price.

La Caressette was born from that search in 2024: a house conceived as a bridge between the heritage of Chinese silk and contemporary French design.

Our mission

Making the silk scarf a personal expression

La Caressette grew from a desire to share an everyday experience of softness and refinement. Each scarf is imagined as wearable art, able to express a mood, transform an outfit and accompany precious moments in life.

“Every woman deserves scarves that express her emotions and make each moment even more special.”

— Sara

Artworks imagined with partner artists

La Caressette collaborates with partner artists to bring their worlds to life on silk. Creation and design are developed in our workshop in Villejuif, near Paris, under Sara’s direction.

Traditional Eastern motifs, Parisian scenes, gardens and cultural celebrations meet in original compositions. Each scarf tells a singular story shaped by cultures, emotion and contemporary elegance.

The prestige of Chinese silk

China is the historic birthplace of silk. La Caressette honours this heritage by choosing Chinese mulberry silk for its softness, lustre and ability to reveal the richness of colour.

After production, every scarf is carefully inspected in our workshop in Villejuif, near Paris. Quality control and packaging are completed there before the piece reaches its future owner.
