In this era, fabrics were dyed a deep indigo blue, and then a mild bleaching agent was applied via a copper roller to literally \"discharge\" or blast the color away, leaving behind crisp white geometric dots.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"8,1,0\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"8,1,0\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eThe Pink Print:\u003c\/b\u003e The pink fabric features a charming, tiny repeating red-and-white floral motif on a solid pink ground.
