This romantic and adaptable tunic is hand dyed by artisan Erin Cassell in a painterly combination of deep cool purples, ocean teals, and night forest greens. It is lovingly sewn by studio artists in Maryland with hand cut and free form details. DETAILS The left front neckline is decorated with a small deep green satin ribbon rose, a velvet leaf, and long trailing hand formed ribbons edged in black. The tops of the slit sides are decorated with a velvet leaf for strength, and shorter 'trails' for fun. The front hem retains the glossy selvage edge which takes the different dye colors in a subtly different way. The back hem has a free form petal edge in black. One armhole is wrapped in a single freeform petal shape for strength. The other armhole has a double wrap. FABRIC The delicate 100% rayon fabric breathes for a comfortable experience all year long. SILHOUETTE and SIZING ONE SIZE The triangular shape floats from the body in a flattering silhouette. This one size garment has a narrow feminine shoulder line but a clever, generous cut over the bust and hips. WHERE TO WEAR IT It goes to the beach in summer with shorts, and layers over a dark tee shirt and leggings or jeans in winter. It dresses up with jewelry for a fancy restaurant, and layers with its companion pieces to make an appearance at an Art gallery opening or a Fairy festival. CARE: Hand wash in cold water and hang from a tree on a clothes hanger to dry, to keep the natural wrinkles and the strongest color. Or throw it in the washer and dryer and take it out as soon as it is dry for a smooth finish. Wash separately for the first wash.
