A 1955 Cepea fabric at MODA. (The Winds of Heaven is 1955 and this would have been rather suitable, although is in some ways not so dissimilar from the fabric we did use, here.) Cepea  was at St. James’s Buildings, Oxford Street, Manchester, it was: ‘a Manufacturer of Cotton, Rayon and Linen Piece Goods for Dress, Lingerie, Shirtings and Furnishings. Also of Handkerchiefs for all Markets.’  There are about fifty other MODA fabrics online here,with details of access to the collection here.
