    Hi!

    I'm wondering if someone can help me with what to call this print?
    Also, are there any tips for dating these?
    Thanks!

    It looks like a batik print to me with indigo dye. Is it all cotton or is the lining silk?

    Thanks Mary Jane! The lining is silk. The outer fabric has squiggly horizontal ribs that look like crepe de chine to me. It also has a texture to the touch. I've never felt anything quite like it.

    I know what you mean about that crinkled finish, I've see that too but don't know what that technique is called.
