From an unnamed NY designer, this is a great fall-winter item! The base fabric is a soft black cotton bottomweight (think denim) with a tiny bit of stretch in the width only. It has printed vertical stripes in light gray, and darker flocked black stripes and a vine-like flowery design. The flocked elements have a raised, velveteen texture. Would make a fabulous jacket to pull an upscale casual outfit together, or can be dressed up as well for a holiday coat or jacket. Dry cleaning recommended.
