Introduction:
Navy & White Diamond Domino - Cotton Poplin Designer Shirting is another first-rate, all cotton poplin originally created for a top British designer of quality men's and women's wear. This fabulous fabric has a clever geometric, all-over design, resembling white diamond-shaped domino bricks against a navy background.
Small printed designs are perfect for adding interest to otherwise plain navy outfits and perfect for teaming with other small designs; spots, ginghams, florals and stripes.
Colour:
Navy & White Diamond Domino is created from fine optic white, Turkish cotton yarns and is printed in dark navy with a background and negative space design of tiny repeating white dominos lined- up corner to corner creating wonderfully rhythmic chevrons.
Navy blue and white combinations are all-time winners, perfect for your favourite bespoke-made summer clothing for all the family. All you need is to decide what you will make. Go on, add some red accents and accessories for a nautical colour combination sure to get admiring glances!
