cloth
i love cloth names. they bring up childhood memories and fashion fantasies i've had.
old pajamas, grandma's house, summer evenings, dinner parties, fabulous drag, work clothes, rags. fairy tales and folk songs. mystery and desire and comedy. faded past and gleaming future. hidden history, sumptuous glamour, homely comforts. music to roll off of one's tongue.
some of my favorites are:
bombazine, calico, cambric, chenille, chintz, damask, flannel, gabardine, gingham, linen, linsey-woolsey, muslin, organdy, percale, pongee, peau de soie, poplin, seersucker, shantung, taffeta, twill.
