Description

Beautifully textured mesh in a sophisticated French navy blue, with a neat, closely spaced openwork construction that gives the fabric its distinctive appearance. It has a lovely soft handle, plenty of body without feeling overly heavy, and a flexible, easy drape. The tiny openings across the surface allow air to circulate, making it a particularly appealing choice for garments where breathability and comfort matter.

Whether you're heading to the gym or getting dressed up for a night out, there's plenty of potential here. Think sporty tops, relaxed T-shirts, lightweight jackets and breathable panels for activewear, or take it in a completely different direction with a contemporary mesh overlay, a layered dress or a statement top worn over a camisole.

Care & washing

Allow 2-10% shrinkage to be on the safe side. Wash the fabric before making up, in the same way you'll wash the finished make, drying methods included, so it settles once rather than after it's sewn.

Test a sample area first to find the most suitable way to wash it. We can't accept liability for fabrics washed or treated incorrectly.
