Kinza offers a bold and playful addition to Cloth Edit’s selection of Hokkoh’s cotton Shantungs.   The simple floral design is lifted to another level with the beautiful colour combinations, and the flourish of metallic gold ‘pollen’ in the centre of the flowers.  There are two different colourways, providing very different looks.

• The black colourway (with the black background) features red and soft orange (peach) flowers, with sage green leaves.    
• The white colourway (with the white background) combines soft pink and a pinkish red, and muted olive-green leaves.  
  

 The cloth is a gorgeous shantung cotton, with the texture coming from the different sized yarns. The weight is 165gsm, and it's perfect for shirts, blouses, dresses, pinafores, pants, skirts that have a bit of structure.

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.
