This circa 1980s genuine vintage Switzerland-made jacquard is beautifully dense and heavyweight. Magnificently fun, it has a birdseye weave and comes in a unique colourway of Yves Klein blue and mint green with a bold lime green selvedge on one side. One face shows more of the blue, and the reverse face more of the green. With a subtle sheen, it is completely opaque and wrinkle-resistant. It has a soft structure, and will hold details such as pleats and gathers well. A rarity, it has a shine that catches the light effortlessly and would make into a divine pair of trousers with a soft pleat or pintuck, a summer jacket, skirt or even a summer bucket hat.
