The individual strands of wire in Litz wire are NOT insulated from each other.
Litz wire is essentially LOTS AND LOTS   A N D   L O T S   of very fine (and
sometimes silver-coated) wire all twisted together. Because of the greater
surface area of such wire, it is supposed to have less impedance at RF
frequencies than normal single strand wire. (or wire with only a few strands)
By the way, Litz wire tends to be VERY flexible as well due to the large number
of strands.
