You may have seen the 'Adoro Le Rose' in the original Black colourway. This Cobalt version is the latest addition of the Linen Silk Collection. The blooms are the same pinkish red as the black colourway, but the cobalt blue background makes the pink 'pop'. The blooms are a lovely size, and the roses, though directional, casually tumble across the cloth. This print could take you to Frocktails, a wedding, family gatherings or lunch with friends. It's striking, but versatile. The variegated green foliage creates balance and keeps the design fresh. 'Adoro' is a very chic iteration of a floral classic. This would be perfect for blouses, dresses, co-ords, trousers and skirts.

Enjoy your Adoro Le Rose! 🌹

Why Linen Silk?
This stunning cloth combines all the wonderful features of both linen and silk fibres: excellent breathability; beautiful drape; and cool and smooth against the skin. The amalgam looks and feels more luxurious than linen and opens opportunities for making garments for special events. Don’t keep it just for best though 😉. This is wonderful for wearing every day.
Enjoy using Cloth Edit’s Linen Silk for floaty dresses, blouses, skirts, and wide leg trousers. Really, it’s perfect for all manner of dresses, tops, bottoms and loungewear. It drapes in soft folds on and away from the body. If lined, more fitted silhouettes are on the table.
The cloth is also great for layering in cooler months as it’s smooth and doesn’t have a lot of ‘friction’ like a range of cottons and linens. The cloth has very good colourfastness and it’s easy to iron.
Cloth Care
- It’s washable by hand but I always use a delicate, cool, machine wash cycle (my tip - don’t overload the detergent and softeners)
- Medium Iron (spot test)
- Steam ironing is perfect
- Don’t use a dryer. It is a garment destroyer and will shorten the life of your garment. It is a quick drying cloth, so just hang your garment on a hanger to dry.
