Overview:
If you are searching for a fabric that has the classic slubby appearance of linen but the supple, malleable hand of viscose, this collection of Linen-Look Stretch Viscose is for you. This lightweight viscose and elastane fabric range offers an easy balance of elegance and versatility. Woven from fine, subtly lustrous yarns, it features soft slubs and striations that echo the look of linen while remaining fluid, breathable and comfortable to wear. With gentle stretch for flexibility and a naturally drapey feel, it is ideal for flowing garments, soft gathers and refined fitted details.

Colour:
Shades: Savoy Blue is a beautifully rich and jewel-hued blue redolent of ultramarine, prized by the old master painters and created from ground lapis lazuli.
Design: The flat weave showcases fine, semi‑lustrous yarns with subtle slubs and striations, creating the appearance of fine linen.
Overall: Savoy Blue is the national colour of Italy, named after their ancient House of Savoy and its heraldic colour. This is Azzuri - deep, intense and mesmerising.

Properties:
Texture: This breathable, plant‑fibre fabric is soft and malleable, with the gentle, absorbent texture characteristic of viscose. Fine slubs create a pleasing, slightly grainy touch as you run your hand along the soft surface.
Handle: While it has the visual texture of linen, the handle is unmistakably viscose. Expect a superbly supple and malleable hand. The opposite of what you would expect from its linen-look design.
Drape: The fabric has a beautiful, soft and flowing drape. The addition of elastane provides approximately 40% retentive widthwise stretch (with no lengthwise stretch), making it well-suited to garments with a comfortable and relaxed style and slim fit. The fabric is semi‑translucent when held to the light.
