Verde Militaire is a classic dark military green hue - this is a natural dark green-brown, like wooded undergrowth (and of course perfect for camouflage). The tone always has a sense of serious style, whether you favour the military chic look, classic country style or a more urban designer style.
Team your bespoke key garments made in this quality heritage fabric with red and navy for a nod to a certain designer and be surprised how good this khaki green looks with softer tones of lilac, pink and pale blue - perfect with your favourite jeans.
This sublimely soft heritage-woven, Italian all-wool twill fabric is woven with the characteristic diagonal lines of the twill weave appearing 2-3mm apart. A versatile medium-weight woollen fabric with a cosy brushed feel has a malleable drapey medium-heavy weight handle; stable lengthwise and with natural widthwise ease. Perfect for a host of tailoring and dressmaking purposes as well as soft furnishings and crafts!
Create coats, capes, and jackets (The Avid Seamstress Blazer). It is a fab soft and cosy woollen that's ideal for historical costume makers too- simple tunic styles spring to mind as do long line capes with dramatic hoods.
The fabric's soft malleability is ideal for longer-length or fuller styles which will show off the soft drape quality. Showcase in a dramatic coat style with a full skirt, that will also keep you warm and dry too.
Green never dates, so don't forget to try bag making, hats and other crafty projects too!
