Luxurious in all the ways a fine silk should be, this lightweight habotai is actually limited deadstock from the iconic Toronto designer Lida Baday. Habotai is a textile known for its airiness and shimmering weave: this deadstock is no exception. Its soft, light hand, lustrous sheen, and gentle drape make it a lovely choice for any unstructured project. We suggest for delicate blouses and dresses, or as an eye-catching lining for a truly special garment. Semi-sheer in lighter colours, it may require a lining (or not, for the daring!)
