Introduction:
This stunning shot/two-tone Italian fabric is woven with superfine high thread count yarns in an impeccable smooth/flat weave and is suitable for a host of stylish makes.
Colour:
Copper-hued silken fine cotton yarns are closely packed together across the warp to form the base for the light mossy green weft yarns. The combination of the two tones (copper and moss green) produces a wonderfully autumnal two-tone/shot olive/tan the colour of leaves as they just start to wear their autumn hues. This is a fabric with a definite air of self-assured style- designer quality - without the price tag.
Properties:
Autumn Shot boasts a stable handle, soft (yet crisp) cool cotton feel and soft drape quality with an almost taffeta-like lustre which will pleat, tuck and gather to form pretty ruffles and excellent fullness if required. This classic Italian shirt fabric will of course hold crisp details such as collars, cuffs and button bands, but there are a host of other things to make from this first-rate cotton poplin.
