Matelassé Magnifique
Sumptuously decorative, Battia brings the Belle Époch into the present. Like a work of Art Nouveau—say, an extravagant gilt medallion or a balustrade of the Paris Metro—its elaborate curling fronds recall nature at its most lush. Yet its understated color and subtle sheen defy the excess of the era, for a fabric that’s beautiful by any modern standard.
