OLIVIA red dévoré chiffon top

LE SAVIEZ-VOUS

Devoré (also called burnout) is a fabric technique particularly used on velvets, where a mixed-fibre material undergoes a chemical process to dissolve the cellulose fibers to create a semi-transparent pattern against more solidly woven fabric. The same technique can also be applied to textiles other than velvet, such as lace or the fabrics in burnout T-shirts

Devoré comes from the French verb dévorer, meaning literally to devour.
