Luna Meadow - Liberty Silk Crepe de Chine is another exquisite blouse weight silk crepe de chine. "A versatile favourite, with a soft handle and a natural lustre. Its surface has a hint of matte roughness, making it one of the easiest silks to sew – luxe yet laidback, it’s perfect for daytime designs as well as eveningwear".

Printed with a finely drawn floral design of British wildflower meadow plants, slipper orchids and fritillaries are but two of the prized specimens depicted in soft rose pink outlines and background. All the usual impeccable qualities you would expect from Liberty fabrics are present in this elegant beauty. 

Designed as part of the "Palace Gardens Liberty" Collection for A/W 2018 and inspired by a former royal residence Etham Palace in south London. Once used by Tudor Kings and queens the palace was revived by new owners in 1933 and transformed with bold geometric and fine hand-painted florals of the Art Deco period. 

Classic ivory creates the perfect combination with the soft rose hue detailing the meadow flowers. Luna Meadow boasts an incredibly, slinky and luxurious handle and excellent stability. This light (blouse weight), but by no means flimsy, 100% Silk Crepe de Chine is perfect for a host of sophisticated projects.

Combine this beauty with classic ivory or a pink-hued crepe de chine for a super on-trend pattern blocking style. Classic full-sleeved blouses with neat collars or bow tie necks will look superb. Extend these styles into dresses with full gathered tiers for an elegant and up to date style.

Luna Meadow will make excellent simple drapey tops, blouses and bias-cut dresses (lining recommended). Try a simple rectangle, drop shoulder cowl-necked scarf top or easy make dolman sleeve top. Perfect for dressing up your jeans! Stand-alone occasion wear, tea dresses, ladies day dresses and bridesmaid dresses will look so feminine made in this botanical beauty. Emphasise the Art Deco influence and create the Paris Promenade Dress from Folkwear Patterns and combine with classic ivory crepe de chine or another pink-toned design for stunning results.

Go ahead and indulge further in creating, robes, peignoirs, nightdresses, slips, camisoles, French knickers, playsuits etc and add some matching antique style lace trim for the finishing touch.
