This 114cm wide silk and wool blend suiting comes in a brilliant poppy red that commands attention without shouting. Woven in a fine twill, it has a subtle diagonal texture and a refined sheen that catches the light beautifully. The 50% silk content gives it that unmistakable glow, while the wool brings structure and depth.
Medium weight with a smooth, luxurious handle, it presses sharply and holds shape well, making it ideal for tailoring. Perfect for statement jackets, fitted dresses, skirts or elegant separates. The colour alone makes it special - rich, confident and unapologetically bold - but the quality of the weave is what truly sets it apart.
