A beautifully soft and fluid challis with an ornate botanical print in deep burgundy, olive green, muted gold, and warm cream. The design has a slightly vintage, decorative feel, with stylized flowers and curling leaves scattered across the surface rather than arranged as a strict border print.
Small woven metallic-gold accents are worked throughout the fabric, adding a subtle glimmer that catches the light without making the overall look overly shiny. The gold details make the print feel a little more special and dressy while still keeping it wearable.
At around 110 gsm, this fabric is lightweight, very soft, and beautifully drapey, but still opaque. It falls easily around the body and would be especially suitable for garments where movement and softness are important.
Although the print has a placement-style feeling, the motifs are distributed across the fabric rather than concentrated only along the edge, so the cutting layout is relatively flexible.
Suggested Projects
Perfect for flowing dresses, blouses, soft skirts, gathered tops, wide-leg trousers, wrap styles, and other garments that benefit from a fluid drape.
