Pure ramie plain weave fabric with very fine yarns, similar to a crisp voile or batiste, in a soft, medium greyish green colour with mild lustre (less shiny than it looks in the photos).  This fabric has soft, floaty drape with movement and body.  Smooth overall with a slightly dry hand-feel and a bit of typical "crunchy" ramie texture.  It is somewhat translucent on the skin and you would probably need a lining or inner cami for a top.  It is stronger than an equivalent weight of cotton and most resembles silk organza.  Suitable for translucent shell tops and over-jackets, gauzy shirts, tunics, blouses, floaty dresses and bottoms with lining, as an accent paired with other fabrics, or it can also be used as a lining fabric. For reference, here are some ramie garments on Pinterest.  Swatches are available, leave a note at check-out if you'd like one.
