For shirts, layering frocks, overlays, and sashes. Description: What? A playful faux bois (french for fake wood) motif on silk? The combination knocks us out when we look at it. It is even more fun to wear it. It has a national park camp sort of vibe, as well as evening out to a museum or theatre sort of relevance. In other words, wear it where you want to wear it! We love and recommend our washed silk chiffons for the hottest days of summer. They are so breathable, yet they give you coverage on the arms in our shirts and layering dresses. They also work beautifully in our layering frocks like the Bedloe, Bramley, Dennison, River, and Wildefield. All-star traveler! They will give you hours of wear, and they still look incredible. They can easily be washed in a sink and hung to dry overnight in a hotel room, too. Content: 100 percent silk. Woven in Italy. Care: Simply hand wash or put through machine delicate cycle in cold water with a plant based detergent. We suggest using a natural fabric softener to maintain the softness we have washed into it. Tumble dry on extra-low heat for just a few minutes with our artisan wool dryer balls (just a few minutes is needed) to keep the relaxed effect that is featured in the Look Book.
