FABRIC & CARE
FABRIC CONTENTS: 100% Silk 12MM Crêpe de Chine
Silk has been renowned for centuries as a valuable and luxurious commodity, often associated with wealth and status. The strongest of natural fibers, silk retains its shape, drapes well, caresses the figure, and because of its high absorbency, it is easily garment dyed in a variety of deep colors. This 100% Washable Silk Crêpe de Chine is woven to have a supple, organic feel, unlike many fabrics woven with synthetic fibers. With a 12 mommes weight factor, our Eco-friendly silk of choice is lightweight but is suitable for sewing into many body styles designed for women's silk clothing.
CARE INSTRUCTIONS: Machine wash warm with like colors, and with mild detergent (do not use bleach). Tumble dry low, or line dry. Warm iron (silk setting). Dry Clean OK.

Our enchanting Scarlet fabric print draws inspiration from classical floral designs of the Victorian era during the early 1900’s. This was a time of brief return to romanticism in all art forms, including architecture, residential décor, and apparel. This was also a period where floral designs became more lavish, and utilized in excess. Floral patterns were often realistic and often combined to create a mélange of diverse species, thus imitating the contrived cottage gardens that were in vogue at that time.
Our Scarlet print here features a collage of exotic cottage flowers in pattern repeat, including Forest Violets, Japanese Peonies, Wild Daisies, Passion Fruit flowers, Orange Osmanthus, and Serrated Dianthus. There are also intricate floral paisley patterns and stylized Lotus symbols, all appearing to be floating among the flowers, creating a dreamlike effect to the printscape. There are also repeating rows of intriguing Hindu temple designs that add an exotic flair to the complexion to the fabric. This opulent print artistry wonderfully enhances the elegant drape of our luxe Silk Crêpe de Chine.
This Tianello natural fibered 100% Washable Silk Blouse was designed, developed and proudly Made In The USA using premium imported fabric.
