{"product_id":"rl-italian-ex-designer-holiday-print-black-ralph-silk-fabric","title":"Ralph Silk","description":"\u003cp\u003eWoven in Italy, this is a rather fabulous piece of ex-designer cloth: 100% silk, incredibly fine and light at approximately 91gsm, with an open mesh-like weave that gives it an airy, almost gauzy quality. Against the black ground is an enormous white illustrated seaside scene filled with palm trees, sailing boats, parasols, distant villas, birds, waves and bathers. Look closer at those little beach parasols, you might spot a rather famous name is woven into the story of the print itself – so its designer origins aren't exactly keeping themselves quiet.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe scale, monochrome palette and sheer lightness of the silk make this something quite out of the ordinary. We can see it becoming a dramatic full skirt or dress, a floaty oversized shirt, kaftan, beach cover-up or fabulous wide-legged trousers, either left sheer where appropriate or layered over a lining. It would also make an extraordinary statement scarf or wrap. There are fabrics you buy because they're useful, and then there are fabrics you buy because you may never see anything quite like them again. This is very firmly the latter.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ctable style=\"width: 99.928%;\" cellspacing=\"0\" cellpadding=\"6\"\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr bgcolor=\"#E5E5E5\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 5.02158%;\"\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 43.5801%;\"\u003eApprox width:\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 51.4712%;\"\u003e140cm | 55\"\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 5.02158%;\"\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 43.5801%;\"\u003eComposition:\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 51.4712%;\"\u003e100% Silk\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr bgcolor=\"#E5E5E5\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 5.02158%;\"\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 43.5801%;\"\u003eConstruction:\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 51.4712%;\"\u003eWoven\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 5.02158%;\"\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 43.5801%;\"\u003eWashing instructions:\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 51.4712%;\"\u003eDry Clean Recommended\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr bgcolor=\"#E5E5E5\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 5.02158%;\"\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 43.5801%;\"\u003eWhat can I make with this:\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 51.4712%;\"\u003eStatement Dresses, Kaftans, Shirts, Skirts, Wide Leg Trousers, Lightweight Jackets and Scarves\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 5.02158%;\"\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 43.5801%;\"\u003eApprox.
