This fabric is quite exquisite in real life! It's a viscose and silk voile from Italy, with a Japanese aesthetic in that it has a very subtle yet intricate weave and a delicate and floaty "personality". The colors are natural, sage-gray (PANTONE 15-4003) and taupe (15-1215). The stripes run horizontally, but you can turn and cut your garment so that the stripes run vertically if you wish. Floaty, soft and sheer. Perfect for scarf, or for layered blouses, tops, etc. Dry clean of if you wish to hand wash at home, please test first.
