This is an amazing fabric, much more beautiful in real life! Made in Italy, this is an all-silk "burnout"/voile in black and white, with a windowpane plaid design. Where you see gray in the top photo is actually the more sheer area of the fabric, so it's as if ribbons of black and white are criss-crossed with a very sheer black in between. It's a voile weight, so it's floaty, soft and light---just stunning in real life. Please test first if you wish to hand wash at home, or dry clean.
