Silky, Saturated, and a whole lot of Swoosh! 💃⁠ ⁠ Perfectly describes both The Painterly Swatch Geometric Rayon Twill Shirting in Aqua/Multi and the Saturated Painterly Floral Rayon Twill Shirting in Turquoise/Multi. Both are made of rayon and are fifty-eight inches wide. ⁠ ⁠ We are just imagining these fabrics with the @peppermintmagazine Wide Strap Maxi pattern, @truebias Southport Dress pattern, @chalkandnotch Ivie Dress & Two-Piece set pattern, or the @closetcorepatterns Nicks Dress pattern. ⁠ ⁠ P.S. Have you seen the prismatic maxi dress Anne Hathaway wore in The Devil Wears Prada 2? It looks very similar to the Painterly Swatch Geometric fabric! 😉 ⁠ ⁠ #shoplocal #supportsmallbuisness
