Snakey Black & Cream Silk Crepe de Chine

This 100% silk crepe de chine is a lovely matte black and rich cream, with a marvelously complex design. The stripped print is a ferocious melange of 4 1/4" wide dark and light striped patterns.......reminiscent of snakeskin or feathers. This silk is equally perfect for a classic 1980s-style floppy bow-tied blouse, a coat lining, or a languorous evening wrap. 45" wide.
