FABRIC & CARE

FABRIC CONTENTS: 50% Cotton / 50% Polyester

For centuries Cotton has been renowned as being the principal clothing fiber of the world, and its’ production is one of the most influential factors in world prosperity and economic stability. 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.

The most common fibers used for industrial knitted fabrics are cotton. These knit fabrics provide form-fitted styling since their elasticity permits them to follow the body’s curvature. Our Cotton Blend Knit Jersey here has a soft-textured hand, it drapes beautifully on the body (affording long wearing comfort), is easy to care for, and it is also wonderfully wrinkle resistant. This fabric is 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 garment). 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, much like our Tixati Knit Jersey Jacquard Ballet Tee, which was crafted using a premium Cotton Blend Knit Jersey Jacquard fabric chosen for long wearing comfort and minimal care. With costume origins from traditional ballet corps in Europe during the early 1800’s, the elegant tunic design of this silhouette has enjoyed decades of popularity among women of all ages. Attention is drawn to a marvelously soft-textured “damask motif” jacquard (which we call "Tixati") to help express your personal sense of style.

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 captivating “Tixati” jacquard weave draws inspiration from antique textile damask designs which appeared commonly in linens and furnishing fabrics, but are now also used for clothing, particularly women’s fashions. Today, modern computerized looms provide the capability to produce elaborate patterns with a “stenciled lace” effect that emulate the beauty of high-quality damask weaves. Our rendition here features neo-classical botanical imagery in the form of intricately designed floral mandalas outlined by symmetrical acanthus swirls, in pattern repeat. This synergy of superb weaving artistry and classic visuals beautifully enhances the soft feel of our premium Knit Jersey fabric.

This Tianello Cotton Blend knit garment was designed, developed and proudly Made In The USA using premium imported fabric.
