Fabric Details +

Name: 50% Cotton - 50% Linen Blend

Composition: 50% Cotton - 50% Linen

Description & Certifications: Linen is a natural fibre made from flax plants, a plant which grows without the need for fertilizers or pesticides. We have blended it with organic cotton to make a luxurious fabric that is strong, durable and practical. Please Note: As our linen-cotton blend is made from 100% natural fibres, little flecks may appear in the print. These irregularities are part of the beauty of natural fabrics.

Dyes: OEKO-Tex-certified Dyes

About the print: This print is inspired by Eilean Donan Castle, rising from the water at the meeting point of land and loch. Set on a small tidal island where three lochs meet, its story is one of loss and return.

Destroyed in 1719 during the Jacobite uprisings, the castle lay in ruins for nearly 200 years before being rebuilt in the early 20th century. What stands today is a careful act of restoration, memory layered over loss.

About the Style: Cynthia is the shirt dress of our dreams; featuring a pretty mandarin collar that can be worn up or turned down, three-quarter length sleeves, a belted waist, deep pockets, and a full skirt.

Our Cynthia dress creates a classic silhouette that looks flattering on a variety of figures thanks to the nipped-in waist. All our dresses also use Corozo nut buttons - no plastics round here! Our Cynthia has a slider belt. These combine timeless simplicity with a perfectly polished fit.

Who Made Your Dress? Cynthia is ethically made by Satnam and his team in our London factory. For more information on the fabrics we use at Palava, click here.
