'Mara' revisits the classic leopard print, and adds a chic dark background. My Dress Made indicate this background is khaki, but I see it as a dark, cooler brown with a tiny bit of warmth added, and this might give the appearance of a khaki in the light. Indoors, is 'reads' more as brown | taupe. I hope my 'colour talk' helps ;-). The cloth is the outstanding 'Flame' cloth that Anne has used before. I know many of you have fallen in love with it. This cloth has a unique, slightly slubby texture, but the cloth remains fluid and oh-so-soft. It has a delicious, slightly 'rumpled' appearance which looks so luxurious. The beauty of the small poly content is that this cloth won't need ironing if you hang your garment on a hanger to dry.
Exclusive pattern designed and printed in France. Composition: 80% viscose / 20% polyamide.
This is perfect for blouses, dresses, jumpsuits, skirts, and more.
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.
