Alys Stripe Navy

Lavelle FabricF4696-03

Alys Stripe Navy is a quietly tailored stripe with a fresh pale ground and slender navy lines running through the linen. The effect is crisp rather than stark, giving the fabric a clean, composed look.

About this fabric

Woven in 100% linen, this fabric has the natural dry handle and lightly slubbed surface you expect from a linen stripe, with the vertical lines reading as neat navy pinstripes against a soft ivory background. The repeat is 3cm approx horizontally with no vertical repeat, which keeps the design orderly and easy to align. At 140cm approx wide, it is well suited to curtains, blinds or light upholstery applications where a smart stripe is wanted without visual heaviness. The navy is deep but slightly softened by the weave, so the overall feel stays refined and airy rather than severe. Care code Q 8 + T 3 and fire code √BM are as supplied for this exact colourway.

How to use it

Use it to sharpen a relaxed scheme with white painted joinery, pale oak and brushed metal details. The cool navy stripe brings definition to slipcovers, roman blinds or tailored cushions without overwhelming the room.

A crisp navy pinstripe on linen that works neatly across relaxed seating and tailored curtains.

A pattern needs somewhere for the eye to rest, so these are the plains and textures that sit beside Alys Stripe Navy without fighting it. Mixed across the houses we hold, which is the part a single supplier's book cannot do.

Paint that goes with it

Two ways to take the room. Both colours are from houses we hold, so a pot can come off the same order as the cloth. Screens shift colour, so treat these as a direction and bring the cloth to the shelf before you buy the paint.
