Sevenberry note that fish are often used on kimono fabric as they are symbols of vitality and tranquility.  This gorgeous Sevenberry print includes various fish, alongside lobsters and prawns.  The size of the individual images is small, and they are arranged in rows, but it isn't a directional print.    Sevenberry is another renowned Japanese fabric brand that delivers design styles that you won't see elsewhere.  The cloth is a substantial cotton shirting.  At 182gsm, it's perfect for shirt, shirtdresses and casual pants.  It would also be great for an array of boxy top styles but will also work well for blouses and dresses that have pleats or some gathers.  It would bring some lovely body to a statement sleeve.

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.
