MARQUISETTE FABRICS

An eclectic mix of design influences that creates a coherent and stylish collection. Here we have stripes, geometrics, delicately drawn leafy embroideries and an elegant scroll pattern all in wonderfully lustrous silks, plus a supremely elegant classical fleur-de-lys damask in an elegant linen/cotton mix. Colors are soft, clean and clear, often interspersed with white or natural highlights. As their names suggest, Versailles was a strong influence from the classical Empire patterning in the chateau to the formal gardens and parterres.
