The idea of LILYSILK was conceived by Lily Lin in January of 2010, after having spent more than a decade working in France`s silk industry. Lily`s idea was to disrupt the prevailing business model where retailers realized huge profits, customers paying huge premiums, and the silk workers remaining in relative poverty. Lily`s revived vision was to create an online outlet that would link Chinese Silk weavers directly to Western silk enthusiasts.
