A wonderfully retro striped fabric with an unexpected mix of colors. Wide charcoal-gray stripes are layered with narrower lines of lavender, pale blue, cream, and muted brown, creating a playful yet sophisticated combination. The varying stripe widths give the design a lovely vintage feel, reminiscent of 1970s casual wear. A distinctive alternative to ordinary striped fabrics.
Hand & Drape
This substantial cotton-linen blend weighs approximately 300gsm, giving it a thick, structured feel. It has a visible woven texture and enough body to create garments with a defined silhouette. Unlike lightweight linen blends, this fabric is better suited to pieces that benefit from some structure. It is a non-stretch woven fabric.
Suggested Projects
A great choice for retro-inspired skirts, structured tops, wide-leg trousers, and casual jackets. The stripes would look particularly interesting on an A-line skirt, boxy cropped jacket, or simple shift dress. You can also experiment with changing the stripe direction between different garment panels.
