Once you see this Classic Blue Silk Shantung you'll want to co-bolt to get your hands on it. Teeming with texture, Shantung has a gratifyingly nubby hand paired with a visual grain all its own. Crisp yet pliable, this material is easier to work with than Dupioni as it is of a lighter weight, yet an opaque fabric. Opulent and plainly woven, this material features varied striations throughout that make it an ideal choice for grandiose ball gowns, suits, and other heirloom garments.
