Classic, versatile and effortlessly smart, this is a beautifully woven lightweight cotton twill made from 100% cotton. The subtle diagonal twill weave gives the fabric extra durability while maintaining a soft, breathable handle, making it as practical as it is comfortable to wear. Black is one of those wardrobe essentials that never goes out of style and works equally well for everyday basics and more tailored makes.
At approximately 168gsm, this ex designer cotton has enough structure for crisp shirts and shirt dresses while remaining light enough for skirts, pyjamas and children's clothing. It sews beautifully, presses well and is an excellent choice for garments you'll reach for again and again.
