A soft ramie-cotton blend with a painterly floral print in layered shades of green, blue, yellow, orange, coral, and muted pink. The flowers have a loose watercolor quality, with blurred edges and overlapping color that give the fabric a lush, slightly artistic feel rather than a crisp graphic look.
The ramie-cotton base is surprisingly soft, much softer than the dry or crisp hand often associated with ramie. At around 110 gsm, it is lightweight and breathable, with a relaxed drape and just enough body for garment sewing. It is not very sheer, so it should work well for many dresses and tops without automatically requiring a lining.
The overall effect is colorful but still wearable, and the larger floral scale would look especially good in simple silhouettes that let the print flow across the garment.
Suggested Projects
Lovely for relaxed dresses, blouses, shirts, gathered skirts, soft tops, lightweight trousers, and other breathable everyday garments.
