What appears like an abstract art piece covers this Marc Jacobs Multicolor Abstract Printed Cotton Dobby Sateen. Squares of deep toned colors are tiled over a smooth, crisp sateen. For those who aren't familiar with the term dobby, it refers to a woven fabric produced on the dobby loom, characterized by small geometric patterns and extra texture in the cloth. This particular dobby features alternating thicknesses within its twill weave, but due to this cotton's extremely soft hand, the added texture isn't noticeable. As seen by the designer as a pleated neckline dress, the opportunities are endless! From tops to skirts, it has a stiffer drape that is suitable for tailored pieces. Thin and lightweight, it is opaque allowing a lining to be optional.
