This circa 1970s genuine vintage Italian-made sateen is luxuriously midweight, with a baby blue striped design (approx. 6mm) bordered by two navy stitch lines on a cream base. It has a soft sateen backing on the reverse face. Both sides have a subtle sheen. Completely opaque and wrinkle-resistant, it's soft and holds natural drape whilst maintaining gentle structure. A rarity, this fabric would make into a stunning two-piece set, a spring weight vest or jacket and an incredible wrap blouse.
