Lovely camisole! Nice fabric and stitching well finished.
I am very much enjoying wearing the camisole I purchased in the Deep Sea colour. I wear it as an inner garment as well as an outer garment. The quality is excellent and I am buying 2 more in different colours. As an underlay for silk chiffon it is very comfortable and hides any lumps and bumps to create a smooth, flawless finish. The fabric is supple and can be tucked in without adding bulk but it is a good length when worn out over the tummy area. (am 5 feet 2 inches so taller ladies might want to check this). The silk fabric is cool in the summer and warm in the winter and I wear silk all year around.

Great! Thank you very much for sharing this detailed review Jane. We're so pleased to hear you're happy. Enjoy your camisoles :) We hope you get alot of good wear out of them.
I now have 3 of camisoles in different colours and wear one nearly every day. They wash beautifully. I am waiting in hope of a slip dress made from the same fabric. There are quite a few on the marke... Read more

Fantastic quality
What started off as a bad experience due to some mess up with availability was really turned around by the Fable team. Prompt responses and communication, keen to make the customer happy. Speedy delivery. They did what they said they were going to do. I am absolutely delighted with quality of the fabric and craftsmanship of the shirt. The shirt is true to size but fitted, as mentioned on the website. I'll definitely be back for more. Great standard item in your corporate wardrobe! Highly recommend!

Big fan
I've been a customer of The Fable for years now. Love the quality, fit and range of the shirts. I travel a lot for work, and their versatility and durability are a godsend too. The Fable's ethical accreditations and care for the makers are also really important to me. Very excited to hear that silk camisoles are being released soon. Thanks for everything that you do Sophie!

Did not meet expectations
After reading all the reviews, I decided to purchase from Fable. 3 silk t-shirts and 3 silk shirts.
Positives: Beautiful packaging, quick response from the team when I had to exchange a shirt as there was a size discrepancy, free P&P.
Negatives: There was a size discrepancy in one of the shirts and I felt even though they are all XS, they all fitted differently. I had to return it and pay for the postage. I didn't like the fact I couldn't raise my arms without the t-shirt stretching. My bust area gaped even though there's loads of extra materi...Read more

Beautiful fitted silk shirts that wash really well too!
I love wearing these shirts so much that I've bought 8 in total. I love the tailored fit, that they tuck into skirts or pants to look really smart, and I can also wear them casually and going out. I tend to run hot, and love that because they're silk, I don't overheat in them and I can wear them in spring and autumn, not just winter. They wash really well in the machine (with no spin cycle and in a bag) and then dry without needing ironing when I put them on a hanger. The service has always been excellent also. I recommend The Fable highly. Amanda C

Thanks for the buttons!
I received my first order of Fable shirts this week, they arrived promptly and were beautifully packaged. After trying them on, I immediately sent a thank you email to Fable for their button placement. As a woman with ample bust, I find it very hard to buy button up shirts as they usually gape in all the wrong places. I have since found out that the button placement on the Fable shirts has been thoroughly thought through to avoid the gaping, which I'm so impressed and grateful for. These shirts are definitely investment pieces and are absol...Read more

How good does it feel!!!!
How good is it to find an ethically made product that is as stunning in the flesh as it looks on the website? Congratulations to Jess and the Fable Team. Outstanding product, outstanding service and it feels so good to know it wasn't produced in a "sweat shop" that perpetuates a terrible cycle of poverty and makes life miserable for so many women and girls. Bravo! Big chains should take note.

Gorgeous, ethical shirts
Absolutely beautiful shirts, well-made and make me feel like a queen. The price tag means these are a commitment: they're something to be cared for and worn regularly, not just used and casually discarded. Gentle machine washing and drying on a hanger won't quite get all the wrinkles out, so be ready to run a gentle iron over them if that's something that bothers you. I'm big on ethical clothing, slow fashion, and natural fabrics, and these definitely tick my boxes. The only down side is that there are so many colours I'm tempted to buy rather more than I need.

Not iron free
Great shirts - I bought two, but as other reviews have indicated they do not dry wrinkle free and still require ironing (and yes I did follow instructions provided by fable)

Silk that makes me feel like Kate Middleton!
Fable creates beautiful shirts for working girls like myself who need basic wardrobe staples. They come at a super affordable price with quality which is second to none! I am a very petite girl and while the shirt is slightly large, I can get away with the oversized look which looks super chic paired together with a pencil skirt! Can't wait to order my next colour! Keep up the good work team, you run a fabulous enterprise. PS: the packages arrive in a gorgeous pink box - so extra - made me feel special!

Classic silk shirts from classy label
I love the whole aesthetic of this label. From the easy site navigation, quality make and fabric, and ethical production values to the classy packaging. My parcel arrived promptly and I was delighted with the gorgeous packaging. And the enclosed colour chart with fabric samples is genius. I will be ordering more in the future. Cheers, The Fable.

Amazing Silk Shirts
The minute I opened my parcel from the Fable, I knew I was dealing with a company which values quality.
My silk shirt was beautifully stitched and carefully made. Within 24 hours I had ordered two more.
Fable Silk Shirts are fabulous.

I still have not received my shirt supposedly sent on 9/9. It is now 24/9. The tracking number provided tells me nothing. I have emailed the company, the owner herself, and messaged. I have had no reply. I can’t find a phone contact otherwise I would ring to find out what’s happening. This forum seems to be the only place you get a reply. Marion

I have now been contacted and the shirt will be shipped in the next batch in October. We’ll see.

Next-level quality
Refined, ultra-soft, exquisite. My Fable shirt is a step-up from the washable silk one I bought from Country Road recently. While that's still lovely, I really regret not shopping from Fable sooner. I'm normally 12/14, but sized up to a 16 in Fable and it drapes really nicely, with minimal gaping across the bust. Egyptian Sands is a lovely champagne colour. A luxurious experience all round.

Beautiful Quality and shopping experience
I love to wear silk items in summer and struggle to find any silk in Aus. I have just received my first Fable Tee and WOW . The packaging and attention to detail is a stand out, Like a gift to myself. I am very happy with the quality and will now buy more T'ees. So handy ! Plus they last so much longer than a regular T'shirt. Worth the investment.
Would love to see a Sleeveless shirt dress added to the range...
Thanks Team Fable, just beautiful.

Thank you very much for sharing this review. We're so happy to hear all your feedback. Enjoy your tee :) We don't have set plans for a silk shirt dress but do have camis coming out next month if they're of interest.
Thanks Sophie for the reply .. I love all things silk, look forward to checking out the Cami. The fable colour card is sitting on my desk at work, I have had all the girls pick it up and enquire . So clever . Have a cracking weekend

OK Silk Shirt
I ordered a button down shirt and a T-shirt, both in white.
Website: easy to use, easy to order, no issues with ordering or delivery
Pros: sit well, drape beautifully, give you a good feeling knowing they are ethical and environmentally manufactured.
Cons: became rough and turned off-white/ivory after first wash (hand washed, cold, silk detergent). They are also both extremely see-through...transparent enough to see the details of the vest I wear underneath. The fit sits well, but both shirts are cut very short. I'm 5ft10in and they look box...Read more
y and a bit silly on me. I can roll up the sleeves to conceal how short they are, but the body of the shirt is way too short so I can only wear it with high-waisted skirts or pants. Also, I have to iron them after every wash...I was hoping to skip that step based on the claims on the website, but they look too sloppy for even my casual workplace to wear un-ironed. Verdict: If they were a cut a tad longer, I would recommend them in a darker colour as the fabric drapes nicely.1 comment

for this. True White is a shade with a degree of transparency which is a tricky thing to avoid with silk fabric. We do state this on the product page as we understand it can be an issue for people.

Questions & Answers
Skippyasked
Where are your silk products made?
Cherynasked
Could you tell me the length of the shirt please
2 answers
Hi Cheryn. I would say the shirt is mid length. It is not long enough for me to wear out and for it to totally cover my rear if I am wearing trousers, it comes about half way down. It is perfect if tucked in because I can lift my arms overhead and it does not pull out. I hope this helps.
Sophie D.The Fable
Hi Cheryn, most customers find the same as Robyn. The shirt is mid length. We have specific measurements available on our website.
Elleasked
Will you restock the Deep Sea shirt in M size again?
Is the Rose Quartz colour transparent, can you see the bra underneath? I can't really tell from the video and reviews have made me a bit concerned.
I've ordered forest green shirt in M and its perfect! I am keen to purchase more but don't want then to be transparent.
