FABRIC & CARE

FABRIC CONTENTS: 46% Cotton / 46% Rayon / 8% Spandex

This superb Cotton & Rayon blend is a wonderful combination of fibers that provides much appreciated comfort and minimal care practicality. A medium strength natural plant fiber, Cotton is cool, absorbent, and can withstand high temperatures. When fabricated, Cotton releases perspiration quickly, allowing the fabric to “breathe”, thus giving it a premium on comfort and wearability. Because of its’ absorbency, it is easily garment dyed.

Different from other man-made fibers, Rayon is not synthetic, being made from regenerated wood pulp, an Eco-natural, cellulose-rich raw material. Rayon's properties are renowned for their similarity to organic fibers such as cotton and linen. Rayon is also soft, strong and absorbent, and it allows for quality garment dyeing, thus enriching our product with vibrant hues and deep colorations.

This synergy of fibers creates a knit jersey here with a soft-textured “hand” which keeps the wearer clothed in non-abrading comfort. This fabric is easy to care for, it is also wonderfully wrinkle resistant, and it’s also suitable for manufacturing into a variety of body styles designed for women's knit apparel.

CARE INSTRUCTIONS: Machine wash warm with like colors, and with mild detergent (do not use bleach, and do not pour fabric softener directly on fabric). Tumble dry low. Warm, steam iron (if needed).

Note: Actual colors may vary slightly due to your screen.

THE STORY

Somehow soft ballet style tops find their way into well appointed wardrobes, like our Fontaine Knit Jersey Jacquard Ballet Tee, which was crafted using a premium Cotton & Rayon Blend fabric chosen for long wearing comfort, rich draping and minimal care. With costume origins from traditional ballet corps in Europe during the early 1800’s, the elegant design of this silhouette has enjoyed decades of popularity among women of all ages. Attention is drawn here to the marvelously soft textured “puffed stripe” jacquard pattern (which we call “Fontaine”) that serves as a style element as well as a visual statement.

Our pullover Ballet Tee features a round neckline, ¾ length sleeves, and a fitted drape that sweeps down to a bottom hem that sits at the high hip, all classic elements of this iconic body style. Subtle stitching throughout enhances the fashion simplicity of this top. Garment dyed richness also adds distinctive character to this versatile piece that pairs easily with pants, leggings and designer jeans. This short tunic is perfect for traveling, smart looking for the office, and would make a wonderful addition to your weekend wardrobe.

Our contemporary “Fontaine” knit jacquard here doubles as a design element and provides added visual interest. This jacquard weave features an intriguing alternating stripe design where the weaving creates a somewhat “puffed” effect to the overall complexion of the fabric. This superb weaving artistry beautifully complements the soft-textured feel of our premium Knit Jersey fabric.

This Tianello natural fibered, eco-friendly Cotton & Rayon Blend knit garment was designed, developed and proudly Made In The USA using premium imported fabric.
