This beautiful pure silk dress features a pintucked bodice back and front, and 7/8 length sleeves, shibori dyed on inky black, in brilliant jewel tones of red and blue, the pattern forming an abstract, almost floral design. Fitted in the shoulder with a round neck, the tucked bodice releases to a full skirt (with side pockets), falling just below knee length.
- Designed and ethically made in India
- 100% silk
- Dry cleaning recommended (or very gentle hand wash)
NOTE: Shibori is an artisan process - each length of fabric is wrapped and tied by hand and then dyed, meaning that each length of fabric, and garment, is unique. Variations in the pattern placement on the fabric are to be expected.
