    Product Details

    Palm prints usually mean bright green and tropical. This one is warmer and more grown-up. Long fronds in mustard and burnt orange sweep across a cream ground, drawn with fine black outlines, with a few grey-blue feathery leaves tucked between them. It looks rich and slightly vintage, and it works as a natural neutral with plenty of character.

    High twist means the yarn is spun with extra twist before it’s woven. The result is a smooth, clean surface and a drape that falls neatly instead of flopping. This one is finely woven with a good amount of yarn, so it feels substantial for a viscose.

    Viscose is breathable, with a silky texture and a beautiful drape, which is what you want from a summer fabric. It feels smooth against the skin.
