Hokkoh’s duo of Windowpane Florals offer something different for a shirting fabric. The cloth is like a poplin. It is soft and smooth and has a touch of crispness to it. The geometric pattern is embellished with stylised floral designs, but the real success of these prints are the gorgeous colour palettes.
This colourway is Green | Taupe | Pink, but it also features black, white and purple. This is the perfect print for those who don’t like traditional florals, and love the regular geometric design that underpins the print. While this is perfect for shirt and shirt dresses, also consider blouses with statement sleeves, a range of dress designs such as Tunics and kaftan styles. It might even be a fun coord.

Cloth Care:
We recommend a gentle machine wash or hand washing linen. It is important not to wring the fabric or garment, so if you are handwashing, roll up in a towel to press out excess water. It is preferable to wash inside out. Wash colours separately (30 degrees or a cold wash). Shake out the wet garment and dry flat (or on a hanger) in the shade. Use a warm/hot iron and spot test. You may need a water spray bottle to get rid of the wrinkles when you are ironing, or just embrace the beautiful crumpled look of the cloth ;-). Linen softens upon wearing and laundering. Do Not Tumble Dry.
