A two-page magazine article from Arts & Decoration praising the rapid growth of the American silk industry after World War I cut off imports. It describes the role of the Art Alliance of America in educating designers and holding seasonal pattern exhibitions for manufacturers, and surveys new silk weaves (block effects, double-faced textured silks, Jacquards, open mesh), printed chiffons and Georgettes, dyes, and trade-named fabrics. The first page has a header strip of five captioned silk samples.
