Not The Face
<p>I've been looking around on google but can't seem to find anything similar to this:</p>

<p><a href="https://i.sstatic.net/qjpXP.png" rel="nofollow noreferrer"><img src="https://i.sstatic.net/qjpXP.png" alt="enter image description here"></a></p>

<p>I'd like to know what is the name of that stitching pattern. This is a Chanel dress made out of cotton (search: "Chanel White Pure Cotton Sleeveless Shift Dress with Flowers"). It is also sold on <a href="https://www.reebonz.com/ch/chanel/clothing/chanel-white-pure-cotton-sleeveless-shift-dress-with-flowers-size-40-12186626" rel="nofollow noreferrer">this website</a>.</p>

<p>I've looked for "tuck" stitching, but it's not quite that.</p>

<p>Can anyone help me on this one? I'd really appreciate it.</p>

<p>Thanks</p>

This looks like [filet crochet](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Filet_crochet) (aka "filet lace") because of the very regular, very angular squares. The thread seems to be very thin and slightly fluffy / fleecy because you cannot see the individual stitches.
