Sarah's Silks Playsilk Fox

The Fox Playsilk is made from 100% real silk and cut into a 35 by 35 inch square. Its warm reddish orange colour was inspired by the North American Red Fox. The silk is vibrant with a light sheen, and the natural fiber feels smooth and cool as a child ties and drapes it during play.

Tie the silk on as a cape, then add face paint, ears, or a simple mask to complete the fox look. The costume comes together quickly with items you likely have at home, and because the silk is open-ended, it is not locked to a single character once the dress-up game moves on.

Once the costume comes off, these play silks become a versatile open-ended toy. Children use them for dress-up, small world play, fort building, and dancing, and they take on new roles as grass, water, or a river in a pretend scene. The same silk keeps finding fresh uses across many play sessions.

It measures 35 inches by 35 inches, a square big enough to wear as a cape yet easy for a child to knot and carry alone. The size suits both dress-up and floor play, and the silk folds down small enough to tuck into a bag for trips or visits.

Yes. It is a natural, open-ended costume that keeps its use long after a themed event, unlike a single-wear synthetic outfit. Made from real silk and dyed with non-toxic, eco-friendly dyes, one piece stretches across years of play, so it earns its place instead of being worn once and set aside.

Hand-wash the silk with a mild shampoo or dish soap in warm water, then hang it to dry. Iron on a medium setting to restore the shine if it looks creased. Gentle washing protects the reddish orange colour and keeps the silk soft and vibrant through regular play.
