FABRIC & CARE
FABRIC CONTENTS: 83% Rayon / 7% Polyester / 6% Cotton / 4% Spandex
This premium Rayon blend fabric is a marvelous combination of knit refinement and practicality. Different from other man-made fibers, Rayon is not synthetic, being made from regenerated wood pulp, an Eco-natural, cellulose-rich raw material. Rayon is soft, strong and absorbent, which makes for an ideal garment in keeping the wearer cool and comfortable. The absorbency character of our Rayon blend also allows for superb garment dyeing, thus enriching our product with vibrant hues and deep colorations.
Industrial knitted fabrics afford form fitted styling since their elasticity permits them to follow the body’s curvature. This knit jersey fabric is suitable for manufacturing into a variety of body styles designed for women's knit clothing. Our jacquards have a soft, textured hand, providing long wearing comfort. Additionally, this fabric is easy to care for and is wonderfully wrinkle resistant.
CARE INSTRUCTIONS: Tianello garments are always prewashed or garment dyed so they are always "Pre-Shrunk". Machine wash warm with like colors, and with mild detergent (do not use bleach, and do not pour fabric softener directly on garment). Tumble dry low. Warm, steam iron (if needed).

THE STORY
Flattering knit tops become wardrobe favorites quickly. Consider then, our Melinda Ballet Tee which was crafted using a premium Rayon Blend Knit Jersey Jacquard fabric chosen for long wearing comfort and minimal care. With costume origins from traditional ballet corps in Europe during the early 1800’s, the elegant tunic design of this silhouette has enjoyed decades of popularity among women of all ages. Attention is drawn to a contemporary “gravel motif” jacquard (which we call "Melinda") to help express your personal sense of style.
Our pullover Ballet Tee features a round neckline, ¾ length sleeves, and a fitted drape that sweeps down to a squared bottom hem that sits at the high hip, all classic elements of this iconic body style. Subtle stitching throughout enhances the fashion simplicity of this top. Garment dyed richness also adds distinctive character to this versatile piece that pairs easily with pants, leggings and designer jeans. Perfect for travel, work or play, this short tunic body style makes for a smart investment to any thoughtfully planned wardrobe.
Our “Melinda” knit fabric features a jacquard weave that mimics a gravel motif, shown here in horizontal lines, and in pattern repeat. The jacquard’s random coloration offers a contemporary look to the overall complexion of the fabric. This superb weaving artistry wonderfully enhances the soft feel of our premium Knit Jersey fabric.
This Tianello Rayon blend knit garment was designed, developed and proudly Made In The USA using premium imported fabric.
