Cover & Layer

Sun Shawl Long

$65 USD

A 70 × 200 cm woven cotton rectangle, dense enough to sit over the shoulders in sun.

Opaque
Under our backlight rig, the outline of the form behind the fabric is not readable.
Unlined
There is no second layer anywhere in this piece.

In moving air

Moderate — the hem moves in air but returns quickly. A common choice for part-outdoor events.

This is a description of how the cloth behaves, not a promise about the weather.

Fabric and care in full

Why it is made this way

Long enough to cross at the front and still hang, dense enough at 130 g/m² that it does more than decorate.

As with the hat, we do not publish a UPF number, because this cloth has not been tested to AATCC 183.
