With the intensity of metallic threads, the sheer qualities of a batiste, and the hand of a medium-weight, soft cotton voile, this stunning cotton-polyester lawn definitely deserves a closer look. For those who are unfamiliar with the term lawn, it is a fabric designed using fine, high count yarns, resulting in a silky, untextured feel. Lawn fabrics are crisper than a voile, but not as crisp as an organdy. Characteristically sheer and containing a soft drape, use this fabric as a lining for outlandish jackets or to create dazzling sheer shirts and blouses. You can also use this material as the top layer for lined party dresses!
