'Pastel Aria' is a dreamy floral design on the same lovely light (125gsm) viscose linen blend so many of you have enjoyed recently.  The print features a delightful scattering of watercolour style flowers.  There is a delicacy to this design, with soft lilac, lavender, grey, blues, pinks, yellow, orange and greens dappled across the cloth like a rambling spring garden. There are moments of fine, darker brown foliage, and this marries with the 'natural' background.  It's such a thoughtful print, and the beautiful quality cloth has a cool hand and stunning drape.   The cloth has the qualities of viscose, but the linen content (and lovely weight) makes for a less slippery texture.  It's perfect for dresses, blouses, oversized shirts, skirts, and loose pants.

Cloth Care:

Delicate Cycle; 30 Degrees, Line Dry. Wash colours separately. The finished garment will last longer and look better if it is shaken out when wet and placed on a hanger to dry. To prevent fading, wash inside out and dry in the shade. Cotton needs a warm to hot iron. Conduct a spot test. Cotton is dry cleanable.
