I’m looking for some silk known as “magic silk” among oriental dancers and belly dancers. It’s different from the regular silk in that it’s much thinner and it “ripples” when you wave it in the air instead of falling all together like regular silk does. It’s used for dancing on stage. I don’t know what the correct name is for the silk and don’t have any idea where to find it! help!

Dear Sandra: We never heard of Magic Silk until your email. Nice to learn something new today. We actually sell a 40 denier nylon tricot fabric that we sell the Las Vegas high wire acts for use as a visual fabric. Try some of the search engines for Magic Silk as I did. There were lots of listings for items made with it, but no place to find the fabric. Consider trying a theatrical supply house. Good Luck, Andy
