Who you calling Pocahontas? The soft, earth-toned fabric is now lightweight and the material of the moment, upping the luxe of sophisticated daywear and accessories.

The Street Style take: less Navajo, more urban.

How To Clea It

Dirt or scuff marks can be removed with a suede brush. Place a towel on the underside to control the pressure you apply. Dab wet spots with a towel and dry naturally (hairdryers are a no-no) lest the fabric hardens. Brush off once dry to restore the nap. Dust talcum powder on oil stains and leave it overnight, brushing them softly afterwards. Suede erasers can remove ink marks. Always get professional help for major stains.
