My Dress Made - 'Elena' 100% Viscose Twill

• Weight 120 gsm
• 139 cm Wide
• Made in France (Design in Lyon & Printed in Beaumont les Valence (Rhône Alpes). 
• Microtex #60 Recommended

The 'Elena' viscose twill combines gorgeous bursts of coral and pink alongside ochre-brown, on a classic navy background. The cloth is 120gsm, which gives lovely drape with a little weight.  This is perfect for blouses, dressed, loose pants and skirts.  The colours are perfect for any time of year, and it will team well with black, navy, denim, white and ochre. I also think khaki and olive would be great partners to this unique print.

This print was very hard to photograph, but the sample images are a very good indication of the print.
