Very limited yardage, and cannot be reordered. I have about 4 yards.
I don't think I've every seen anything like this before! From a NY designer, this Italian silk is actually a doublecloth (!), with two layers of very sheer silk sewn together (so they can separate easily for neat hemming) and overprinted with a beautiful ikat rorschach design in tones of pink, apricot, sky, pale sage, dark forest, etc. (PANTONE 18-2436, 16-4530, 12-6204, etc.). It is semi-sheer with a slightly crepey texture and a lovely, soft drape. The print has a 23" vertical and 16" horizontal repeat, and about 10% widthwise stretch. Make a blouse, scarf, camisole, etc. and just fold in the layers at the hem, press, hand baste and topstitch for neat and easy edging. (I haven't tried this, but it seems like it should work!) Dry clean, or test first if you wish to hand wash and hang to dry.
