This wonderful quality reversible jacquard brocade was produced for DVF at Bonotto, the famous Italian fabric mill known for artistic textiles and "slow fashion" principles. It has 10% stretch in the width only in a versatile lighter suiting weight. The small-scale geometric motif is woven in rows of dots on one side and tiny squares on the reverse (3/8" vertical repeat for both patterns). The colors are minty aqua and cherry red on a deep navy background (PANTONE 14-4809, 19-1650, 19-4010). Either side can be used as the face, or have fun with endless design possibilities using both. It is soft and opaque with some body in the drape, perfect for a smart and stylish suit, fitted dress, skirt, tunic, light jacket, cigarette pants, etc. Dry clean, or test first if you wish to hand or machine wash, and hang to dry.
