Imagine this beauty paired with black, bold colours, or neutrals. 'Nova' is a watercolour style black print on a 'natural', light (125gsm) viscose linen blend. The design is timeless, and while this would be amazing as 'separates' (shirts, blouses, skirts, loose pants), I cannot help but imagine this as a dress with a bit of swish in the skirt. This would also look amazing with chic black (or red) and natural espadrilles, or just your favourite neutral or bold summer sandals. The cloth has the qualities of viscose, but the linen content (and lovely weight) makes for a less slippery texture. The drape is amazing, and the cloth is cool against your skin.

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.
