contents: linen
width: 54.5"
origin: designer deadstock/Italy
This is a wonderful linen, a semi-sheer woven with a delicate, gauze-like texture and soft drape with a bit of body. The "painted dot" print (8.25" repeat) features shades of deep taupe, coral pink, orchid and light lavender on a soft white background (PANTONE 18-1312, 16-3525, 16-3116, 16-1720, etc.). It has an upbeat and artsy vibe, and will make a fabulous tunic, top, shirt, blouse, flowing dress or skirt, etc. Some styles will need lining or layering. Hand wash in mild soap (please test first), hang or lay flat to dry, or dry clean.
