A richly textured silk-blend cloqué woven in France, this opulent fabric features a vivid botanical motif in tones of sapphire, amethyst, garnet, and teal, brought to life with gold metallic threads that dance across the surface. The cloqué structure adds sculptural volume and a soft resistance to drape, making it ideal for statement pieces where structure is celebrated — think dramatic coats, evening jackets, cocktail dresses, or sculptural skirts.

Luxurious yet bold, this fabric recalls the glamour of 1960s Balenciaga couture and echoes recent jacquard-heavy looks seen at Dries Van Noten and Erdem. Best suited to tailored silhouettes or modern takes on brocade eveningwear, this is a fabric that commands attention while remaining timeless.

Colour Accuracy and Sample Advisory

We stock a huge collection of fabrics and do our best to describe the colour of each piece, both online and when you call us.  Try as we might, we can never guarantee exact colours or colour matching, simply because of the multitude of variations in shade, as well as the way colours and colour settings vary by device and monitor. To make an informed decision on your fabric's colour, texture, weight and movement, we encourage you to order a sample before placing a larger order.
