A specialized 48% linen, 42% rayon, 10% cotton blend fabric in a natural Ivory shade, woven in a subtle textured dobby weave. The construction integrates a variety of distinct yarn types—including pure linen yarn, a blended linen/cotton/rayon yarn, and smooth rayon filament yarn. This combination creates an ivory base peppered with faint, natural flax flecks alongside a unique textural hand that feels soft and fluid, yet crisp and cool to the skin.
Weighing 168 g/sqm (4.95 oz/sqyd), it falls into the medium-weight shirting and dressmaking category. The high rayon content gives the fabric a supple, fluid drape, while the linen and cotton yarns provide breathability, structure, and surface interest. Pre-washed for a softened finish and minimal residual shrinkage, it is well-suited for drapey button-downs, relaxed blouses, summer dresses, flowy wide-leg pants, and lightweight layering pieces.
