This Italian 100% cotton shirting fabric features a sophisticated multi-stripe design combining rich purple with blue, light blue and crisp white. Fine pinstripes are arranged alongside wider contrasting stripes, creating a detailed linear pattern with the polished appearance of classic shirting.

The pattern is created through a yarn-dyed woven construction, meaning the individual yarns are dyed before weaving rather than the stripes being printed onto the finished fabric. This integrates the colors directly into the weave and gives the stripes a crisp, defined appearance.

This lightweight cotton has the ideal weight for shirting. It offers a smooth hand with enough body for collars, cuffs, button plackets and other structured shirt details while remaining lightweight and comfortable to wear.

The combination of fine and wider stripes also creates opportunities for creative pattern placement. The stripe direction can be contrasted on pockets, cuffs, collars, yokes or plackets to highlight individual garment details.

Made in Italy, this versatile cotton shirting is an excellent choice for classic button-up shirts, oversized shirts, blouses, shirt dresses and other lightweight woven garments.

Sewing with Striped Shirting

For a polished finish, consider matching the stripes at prominent seams and using the stripe direction as a design feature on collars, cuffs, pockets, yokes and button plackets. Depending on your pattern and desired stripe placement, additional fabric may be required for matching.

Care

Pre-washing before cutting is recommended, as cotton may shrink. Machine wash with similar colors in cool or warm water and tumble dry on low or hang to dry. Iron at a cotton setting as needed.

Due to the different color variations of each monitor and mobile device, we cannot guarantee the color will exactly match what you see online.
