    Product Details

    Clover is one of William Morris’s best-loved patterns, and on viscose it looks like it was made to move. Clover leaves, flowers and curling foliage weave through the cloth in earthy greens, with soft cream and little touches of golden yellow to lift them. The palette is calm and natural, and it has the quiet richness of an old tapestry.

    The fabric

    The viscose is lightweight and breathable, with a silky-smooth texture and a luxurious drape that flows as you walk. It feels soft and comfortable against the skin, and it’s OEKO-TEX® Standard 100 certified, so it has been independently tested and found free from harmful substances.

    For every season

    It’s a natural summer fabric, light and cool to wear. It also works well for winter events, such as parties, weddings and Christmas, worn with tights and a tailored jacket or a cosy cardigan. Green and gold feel right for the festive season.

    Making it up

    The wide width leaves plenty of room to cut, which suits gathered skirts, long dresses and generous sleeves.

    • Dresses: midi dresses, shirt dresses, wrap dresses and tea dresses
    • Blouses and tops: elegant blouses, relaxed shirts and camisoles
    • Skirts: gathered, tiered and bias-cut styles
    • Accessories: scarves and headbands in a heritage print

    Sewing tips:

    • Wash gently before cutting, as viscose can shrink
    • Choose a fine, sharp needle and a medium stitch length
    • Neaten seams to stop fraying, with French seams, an overlocker, a zigzag stitch or bias binding
    • Press on a low heat from the reverse, with a pressing cloth if you have one

    sustainability

    OEKO-TEX® Standard 100 certification means this fabric has been independently tested and found free from harmful substances, which is reassuring for garments worn close to the skin. Viscose is made from plant-based cellulose, and a classic design like this is made to be worn and washed for years.
