Pinstriped chambray in 60% linen, 40% cotton. It's a plain-weave fabric composed of colored yarns in the warp and white yarns in the weft, creating a melange effect. Its name comes from the French town of Chambray, where it was originally produced; its production was limited to dark shades, intended for use in work uniforms, so the dark colors could easily hide dirt and stains. This pinstriped fabric lends a simple yet refined allure, fresh and pleasant, making it ideal for creating casual garments such as men's and women's shirts, skirts, and children's clothing.

Description

Before listing the myriad characteristics of linen, it's important to remember that the use of this noble fiber is lost in the mists of time. Scholars claim that traces of its use have been found dating back to 8,000 BC. Indeed, the ancient Egyptians used linen to cover the mummies of the pharaohs, and the Phoenicians traded it in North Europe for centuries. Linen is obtained from the "linum usitatissimum" plant and has a stalk between 40 and 70 cm tall, composed of 70% cellulose, and originally comes from Asia Minor. In modern times, linen fiber has acquired an important role in everyday life, ranging from clothing to furnishings. At Tosca Italian Fabrics, we believe that the technical qualities of linen, including its resistance, breathability, sustainability, and freshness, are an absolute must for timeless elegance. The natural creases that occur when wearing linen are not a defect, but an unmistakable symbol of style and ease.
