Hooray for Rayon! ~ VFG Fashion Parade for the week of August 24th

[carla rey]

Hooray for Rayon!
Rayon is the first, and one of our most versatile, man-made fibers. It can mimic other fabrics such as silk, cotton and linen, depending on the way it is woven and treated.
For more on this wonderful cellulose-based fabric group, see our entry on the Fabric Resource here.
This week our VFG members will treat you to a parade of their best vintage rayon garments and accessories!
