The sumptuous color shifts in this Iridescent Country Blue and Fuchsia Silk Shantung will make your designs positively princess-worthy! 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 when compared with dupioni as it is of a lighter weight. Opulent, opaque, and plainly woven, this material features varied striations, making it an ideal choice for grandiose ball gowns, suits, and other heirloom garments.
