ok, a this past wkend, i was with someone shopping for ties, and the conversation turned to whether all this stuff was synthetic silk or real (worm) silk. a quick search on google was fruitless, but my assertion was that perhaps the stuff you find in department stores is synthetic silk, while the high end stuff, like zegna is the real deal. i'm really curious. is there a definitive way to find out what's real, what's synthetic?
thanks!
thanks!
