Delphi Tiles Viscose Linen Fabric

The g&g exclusive 'Goddess Collection' is inspired by hot days with the brightest of sunshine to give you that gorgeous Summer feeling that makes you smile and relax. Drawing inspiration and icons from Greek Mythology and Goddesses whose power reflects the power you have when you can sew your own clothes, choose your own style and trends and feel confident and proud in what you wear.

Delphi was an ancient sacred area, considered to be the centre of the world and this fabric design brings together an iconic selection of symbols representing Greece and Greek mythology in a bright and vibrant tile-like grid on an off-white base.

Spot the bright sunshine representing Alectrone, Goddess of the Sun and picture relaxing with a delicious drink and tasty food while watching the sail boats bob about in the waves. 

With the bow and arrow of Artemis and the pottery vase and olive branch tainia headband of Athena, along with the eye representing Theia the fabric carries the energy of the Greek Goddesses too. 

Icons are featured in the print (11 in total):

  • Sail boat
  • Greek columns
  • Waves Amphitrite (goddess of the sea)
  • Wine/olives
  • Olive branch
  • Sunshine to represent Alectrone - goddess of the sun
  • Bow and arrow - Artemis
  • Eye Theia
  • Leaf headband Athena
  • Greek pottery Athena
  • Traditional shaped greek roof tile

The design is printed onto a beautiful subtly textured viscose linen, which picks up and pairs with the details and vibe of the design so well. It feels soft and light weight to the touch, it drapes beautifully and is so lovely to sew and work with. And most importantly it feels amazing to wear!
