8. A striking gold and black zebra faux-fur, with very short pile and incredibly soft. This cloth is a real knockout! see photo. This fabric would work beautifully as the outer layer of Celebrating 50. It would also be perfect for the interior, shawl collar and cuffs of the Marnie combined with a black outer fabric. A matching hat would surely be de rigueur!
