From Italian designer deadstock, this is a luxuriously soft, featherweight silk/viscose dobby woven with a soft, floaty drape. The gorgeous "block print paisley" print features jewel tone palette on a soft black background. It is semi-opaque and stable in both directions, and the dobby weave adds an extra layer of subtle but wonderful visual interest.
