This ex-designer fabric is a shantung organza. Shantung is a plain weave silk fabric from the Chinese province of Shandong. It's thinner than a dupioni and less irregular in weave. It's lightweight and this one is mostly opaque, compared to a normally semi-sheer organza. It has a lovely light reflecting black and pink finish. It feels wonderful and has a fantastic silky sheen finish. Has a mixed drape between an organza and taffeta, so a nice easy structure. Perfect for our Everyday Top/Dress, and scrunchies!

We try to take photos that are an accurate representation of our fabrics and their colours, but due to differences between devices and screens the colour may vary slightly. Unfortunately we are unable to offer samples as all of our fabrics are short run end of lines and will likely sell out by the time a sample is delivered. If you'd like to see a video of the fabric or more photos please send us an email or drop us a DM on instagram @newcrafthouse. If you are in London, you can also shop our fabric in person. You can find our opening times here.

*As all of our fabric and trim is deadstock we can't always be sure of the exact composition. We've given our best educated guess above!
