Monroe 600729-0180

A luxurious sheer dissolving a classic flower pattern into a floral field, Monroe evokes fragile glamour and haute couture dresses. A detailed yet lightweight textile using the fil coupe shearing technique to create a transparent base in the jacquard weave, it looks as striking hanging in dense folds as it does with light shining through it. Lurex and matt cotton suggest high-low fashion, while colour combinations alter the figurative expression, from cinematic in onyx and electric blue on a royal black base to mod flower power in electric orange mixed with deep blue, acid green and optic white. In buttercup yellow and silver grey it is dreamy and ephemeral, while the pattern is barely discernible in pearl white on white.
