Cousette have done it again! This is one of their latest prints on their popular 155gsm, gorgeous viscose crepe base. I love the Amourette dress they've made in this print. The colour combination is stunning. The deep mahogany background is punctuated by a haphazard deep navy design. This might be one to pop away for autumn | winter, but if you love these colours then wear it any time of year. I can also see this in a lovely dress with summery sandals. This cloth is a bit more substantial than many viscose fabrics and it's resistant to creasing.
