The leopard waits with patience, hiding amongst the light pink, coral, and yellow-tinged white blooms that decorate this Toulouse Floral and Fauna Mercerized Organic Egyptian Cotton Voile. Mercerized cotton fabrics are far from your basic cotton fabrics, as they are finished with a special chemical treatment that increases luster, dye absorption, and tear strength while reducing fabric shrinkage. This luminous, crisp-handed cotton voile is one for the fashion books and a wardrobe essential! Thin and lightweight, it has a crisp, cool hand and a stiff but flexible drape that allows you to get creative with silhouette. Turn it into smart and billowy skirts, blouses, dresses, and button-downs. Semi-sheer, a lining is suggested for more opacity or structure.This eco-friendly product is STANDARD 100 by OEKO-TEX® certified; tested independently and worldwide, the certification system evaluates finished, semi-finished, and raw textiles while thoroughly covering chemicals, harmful substances, and precautionary parameters. Also recognized and certified by the BCI (Better Cotton Initiative), this product undoubtedly qualifies as eco-friendly for its sustainable sourcing; focusing on the exchange of good practices, it passes the economic, environmental, and social concerns of the initiative.MoodEarth Verified: For more information on Mood's sustainability initiatives, check out MoodEarth here.
