TEXTSTYLE: BOUCLE

French for 'buckled' or 'curled', featured textile, boucle is a fabric or yarn which has a looped or knotted surface.

Chanel popularized the textile...it is used in many of the design house's signature suits.

The woman who wears boucle is a true statesperson, the classic fabric is fit for a queen. Class up and follow suit!
