Origin: A borrowing from French. Etymons: French pout de soye, poul de soie, pou-de-soie.
Etymology: < Middle French pout de soye (1389), Middle French (Burgundy) poul de soie (1394), Middle French, French pou-de-soie (1595) < a first element of unknown origin + de de prep. + soie silk (see soy n.2). Compare poult-de-soie n.The β. forms show alteration of the first element after Padua (see Paduan n.), a city with a long tradition of textile manufacture (compare padou n.). The combination of such forms with a final element in -sa, -say, -saye apparently represents a reanalysis as if < Padua + say n.1 The 17th- and 18th-cent. forms in -swai, -sway represent contemporary French pronunciation of the diphthong -oi- as //. Compare also the rhyme in the following:1730 J. Swift Robin & Harry 47 Clad in a coat of paduasoy, A flaxen wig, and waistcoat gay.
Now historical.
A strong, rich, silk fabric, usually slightly corded or embossed, popular in the 18th and early 19th centuries. Also: a garment made of this material. Cf. poult-de-soie n.
