Orange and Pink is always a popular colour combination, and I loved the simple floral design on this print.  I've had a few designs on this gorgeous viscose substrate before.  The cloth has lovely 'give' on the cross-grain due to the 3% Elastane (about 8%).  It's a stretch woven (but not too stretchy at all).  180gsm is a great weight for a viscose print, and it creates a gorgeous 'floppy' drape.  It's perfect for blouses, skirts, loose pants and dresses.

Viscose is a fibre that is derived from wood pulp, making it a natural fabric that is more breathable than cotton. It is also known as Rayon.

Machine washable at 30 degrees, cool iron and hang out to dry straight after washing, please note when you wash viscose it can become stiffer when wet but the softness and drape will return as it dries. Dry in shade and inside out.
