Aqua Breeze - Viscose Fabric

Aqua is calm, and yellow is warm, and Aqua Breeze puts them together beautifully. Delicate yellow leaves and little flowers are scattered across a serene aqua background, so the print feels fresh, cool and a little bit sunny, like a garden in the early morning.

The feel of it

The viscose is luxuriously soft and lightweight, with a smooth, flowing drape that adds an elegant touch to every garment. It’s comfortable to wear, and it moves with you gracefully. The wide width leaves plenty of room to cut, which suits airy dresses, flowing skirts and full sleeves.

Making it up

• Dresses: airy summer dresses, tea dresses, shirt dresses and wrap dresses
• Skirts: flowy gathered, tiered and bias-cut styles
• Blouses and tops: stylish blouses, camisoles and tie-neck tops
• Trousers: wide-leg trousers and culottes

Summer and winter

This fabric is perfect for sumer with its natral breathability, keeping you cool on warm days. It’s also lovely for winter events, such as parties and Christmas, worn with tights and a tailored jacket or a cosy cardigan, and aqua looks fresh against dark winter colours.
