'Amazonia' Olive & Pink ~ Cotton | Viscose
'Amazonia' Olive & Pink ~ Cotton | Viscose
- 148cm wide
- 60% Cotton 40% Viscose
- 110gsm
- Microtex #70-80 or just a #80 universal recommended
- Non-Directional (There is a general direction, but there are some leaves that go in the opposite direction. It's the type of print where you wouldn't really notice if you needed to place pieces in the 'other' direction).
The cloth is a beautiful Cotton and Viscose blend. It behaves like a lovely quality cotton sateen, but it has a little more drape and softness. It's even better than I thought it would be. The print is a wonderful cacophony of tropical leaves in a variety of shapes. The layering of leaves highlights the harmony of the colours next to each other. This is going to be perfect in blouses, shirts, skirts, pants and dresses.
There are two colourways of Amazonia:
Olive & Pink - The combination of dark and light olive, brown and moments of black is the perfect accompaniment to the bold pinks and deep muted burgundy. The pale pink and off-white anchor the bold and warm hues.
Green & Mauve - You'll find lots of beautiful greens like teal, jade, deep forest and sage. In the pink realm you'll find mauve, dark lavender, pale dusty pink and deep muted purple. There are also small moments of deep navy and off white.
