Talk about a tropical sunset—our Italian Hot Coral and Purple Sunflowers Digitally Printed Silk Charmeuse is so vibrant, it feels as if we can see it too. Greeting us with a billowing drape and oh-so-lustrous surface, behind the scenes, this silky-smooth charmeuse has a matte backing that pales in comparison to its digitally printed facing. Overlooking a bountiful garden, the painterly rendition of sunflowers feels almost life-like—as if a snapshot taken with a macro lens. Altogether boasting a luxurious quality, this couture-worthy medium is well equipped for drapey silhouettes of few seams—and of a featherweight, it brings countless options to the table. Opt for formal wear garments, loose blouses, full pants, lingerie, and more. Without stretch, it's best to include extra wearing ease in your designs, and strive for those that are loosely fitted. Also, consider layering up this fabric or incorporating a built-in slip to accommodate its translucent construction. We suggest sewing a slip dress with scalloped lace trim, or an over blouse with lightweight shank-back buttons. Try your hand at sewing french seams, or finish straight seams with zig-zag stitches or pinking shears to help prevent the fine yarns from unraveling.
