I preferred the plume/ summer silk of the last Lalbhai, they are light and airy with a beautiful drape. The Geant silks, while lovely, don't drape as well. I have several and have only worn one because they feel somewhat stiff and starched. The summer silks drape more like the dip dye- they both have that super-soft, broken in feeling.
The current Geant silks are more like the 90s in hand. Perhaps washing would soften them up a bit, but this composition is not my first choice in a 140. I originally hoped that they would return to the plume silk fabrication, but it seems the heavier weight is here to stay.

I also love the first issue Lalbhai plume silk from 2010/11. They are so soft and airy, like a mousseline version of twill silk. Looks and feels luxurious. Even the later versions like Tapis Persans don't have the same quality. Something about Lalbhai, that I believe was discussed here before, somewhere in the forum. And, for sure the old ones were still hand screened, not sure about the current issue.
 
Could you have been looking in Cotton/Silk instead of Cashmere/Silk? I’m still seeing them. You can also try searching by name.
I just looked and the C'est la Fete had disappeared but Grrrr and And The Winner Is are still there.
Ok, I've tried looking in the Men's section (For Men Only), filtering by silk/cashmere, and searching by name and I don't see any of them! I have no idea what I'm doing wrong. Oh well.
