The fabric is much better than the picture. It is slightly shiny like embroidery floss. This shirt is also slightly sheer/see-through, but only in bright light. I absolutely love it and so does he.
This skirt is heavy linen, perfect for most parts of the year where I live. My only complaint is that it is too small around the waist--I can button it but it's tight and decided to just turn down the first button since it is a little long anyway, (I'm 5'2") and hope to lose a quarter inch around my waist! a medium would have been way too big! I know I will get a ton of use out of it--elegant and casual at the same time--perfect for me!
The fabric, colors, design and craftsmanship of this tunic is stunning. You can dress it up or down. Light weight, doesn't seem to wrinkle when packed. Drop dead beautiful! I always receive compliments when wearing it. Highly recommend.
