A delicate pure silk crepe de chine fabric with a charming bird and floral print on a black background. The design features little birds, nests, leafy branches, tiny berries, and soft botanical details, giving it a whimsical storybook feeling with a slightly romantic vintage mood.
The fabric is very lightweight and softly drapey, with the fine, slightly textured hand of silk crepe de chine. At 13 momme, it is thin and airy, with a semi-sheer quality. It moves beautifully and feels soft against the skin, making it ideal for elegant layering pieces and fluid garments.
Because the fabric is lightweight and slightly sheer, lining or an inner layer may be preferred depending on the project.
