This is a beautiful silk with a very fine weave and a pleasing slight sheen, from the sample room of a NY designer, a blouse or dress weight with a silky surface texture and a lovely, soft drape. Lightweight but not sheer. I love the abstract petal design, which is lively yet sophisticated, in black, white and red (PANTONE 18-1664 is close). Perfect for dresses, blouses, overshirt, tops, skirt, etc. Dry clean or please test first if you wish to hand wash at home. END OF ROLL, 1.75 yds.
