In Venice, the Gesuiti Church of Santa Maria Assunta has a wall of detailed marble work designed to resemble draped fabric. The Fortuny designers have created a new line of fabric patterns based on the Church's marbles, called "Sectile 1729". (the Church was completed in 1729). The three patterns are called Altare, Marmorino, and Navata. Here are links to the designs:
