Garment Care

Our natural dye team uses a mix of vegetable/natural-dyes and sun-activated pigment inks to create beautifully dyed fabrics free from harmful chemicals.

Eco-printing is a sustainable botanical print technique that transfers a natural print onto fabric. In the eco-printing process, colour is extracted from natural plant materials, like marigold and english rose and transferred onto the fabric, secured by steam.

The beauty of eco-printing is that no piece of fabric will ever be exactly replicated. Each garment made from eco-printing is completely unique and irreproducible. The print depends on the placement of the petals as they are scattered on the fabric by hand. It is also a completely natural and slow technique that uses renewable materials and is not harmful to the environment.

All of our naturally dyed and eco-printed garments must be hand washed separately in cold water with a mild detergent. Handle the garment with care and avoid scrubbing or wringing it out. Air dry flat out of direct sunlight.

Naturally dyed products will run the first few times they are washed.

We work directly with Ikat weaving families in Maheshwar who use traditional handloom weaving techniques and naturally dyed cotton. Our artisan partners weave in their own homes and are paid directly ensuring a balanced life and fair pay. We make regular trips to the weaving communities to maintain relationships, build trust and quality checks.

The handloom is an ancient craft practice and an important part of the cultural heritage in India. It is a slow process that involves great care and attention to detail, that produces durable and high-quality fabrics that are made to last.
