The cloth of your dress is lovely.

Simply, another way of expressing the

your jacket has a nice weave...

I think ''tela'' in this context refers not to the color or material so much as the texture. Which we'd say in English with ''weave,'' I think.

or maybe ''material.'' But in suits, you don't decide between satin and velour, but rather, between herringbone or whatever, and that's weave.
