60“ wide, 70% wool, 28% polyester and 2% lycra fabric which is very black indeed with the finest of dotted lurex stripes which gives the impression to me of a night sky.
Staring into space obviously in the right conditions you are almost bound to see darkness lit up by zillions of tiny specks of light. Not unlike this rather fabulous suiting. There is a little bit of interest in the weave in that it has a tiny diamond pattern and the speckles are in silver. It has a wonderful soft hand, it doesn’t appear to crease much, if at all It will also make an interesting dress.
