Years ago, I had this wonderful summer dress (sheath variety) made of a medium weight fabric that I cannot name. It was 100% cotton, a bit stiff, yarn dyed blue & white, and somewhat "corded" on the lengthwise grain with some barely perceptible slubs or irregularities in the weave. I don't recall the weft color but the warp threads were a marine blue and white and that was a common color for this type of fabric. It did not looked striped, however, unless you looked at it very close and even then, the stipes were barely perceptible and irregular. I have looked in vain for this kind of fabric but, not even knowing the name, I cannot find it. It was nice because it kept its shape and did not wrinkle much despite being all cotton. I'd appreciate any ideas as to the name of this elusive fabric. :)
