British textile brand Camira has launched a 1950s-inspired wool boucl© fabric, which is appropriately called Monroe.

Monroe, by global textile innovator Camira, is a simple yet stylish dobby weave upholstery fabric.

The textured woollen boucl©  fabric embraces the current trend for optimistic nostalgia by taking inspiration from the 1950s and in particular movie icon Marilyn Monroe.  Monroe’s tactile pre-worn bobbled effect is reminiscent of fabrics found on upholstery and apparel from the 50s era.

Monroe is available in 18 optimistic colorways including candy pinks, retro blues and pop-art inspired tones. The pattern has the backing of Camira's five year wear warranty.

To celebrate the launch, Camira commissioned London College of Art graduate Dan Ojari, to create a stop-motion animation to recreate a fifties inspired masterpiece.
