From Italy, this is a wonderful rustic weave with variegated fibers in a midnight blue and luminous pearl (PANTONE 11-4202?) coloration. It's drapey and rough-hewn (but not scratchy) with a loose weave. The fabric a medium-light weight (it has substance) but is open and airy--you can see through it because of the open weave. Lovely drape, all natural fibers, but I'm not sure of the exact blend (cotton-viscose-linen is my guess). Perfect for layering, for an airy jacket or "cardigan" for a summer evening, or line for a dress or skirt. |
