Colour:
Shades: Dusk Bloom features a palette of dark navy and golden green - windowpane checks, over a grey marl and soft pink mélange base. This delightful combination has a refined yet romantic edge. Inspired by the soft pink glow of fading daylight, the deep dark navy horizon, and the golden green, a flicker of vitality akin to sunlight caught on late-summer leaves before nightfall.
Design: Windowpane check - characterised by slim, evenly spaced bands of colour running vertically and horizontally to form large squares, reminiscent of windowpanes.
Overall: Masculine structure meets feminine light. A tactile narrative of balance and quiet elegance. This tweed blends rugged tradition with a tender modernity.
Properties:
Texture: Rustic yet refined, producing a slightly soft but structured feel, ideal for tactile appreciation.
Handle: A super malleable and stable hand with structure in the length and width, and a generous bias ease.
Drape: Together, these properties create a fabulous all-rounder fabric that boasts a drape you can trust to form pretty gathers, crisp pleats, frills, flounces, and ruffles.
Garment Suggestions:
Types: Perfect for fashioning classic outerwear and hard-wearing separates. Start with simple, stylish waistcoats, pencil skirts or A-line skirts. Add a complementary lining for garments that will soon become perennial favourites. Tried and tested, these medium-weight materials have a variety of stylish and practical uses, from clothing and accessories to home furnishings and so much more.
Patterns: Consider patterns such as the Cordelia Trousers, the Jemima Waistcoat, the Belvedere Waistcoat, the Amelia Skirt, the Ilford Jacket, the Kusama Jacket, the Kyoto Jacket, the Lyon Jacket, The Blazer, The Coat, Verona Jacket and The Frame Bag.
