How to care for me

I was collected from Mumbai markets rather than being newly made, so my exact fabric composition is unknown. Care for me sustainably with hand wash, line drying and cool iron. I can also be machine washed and dry cleaned if I don't come with embroidery or embellishments that might be affected.

How I fit

I'm made from light and silky flowing fabric. There is usually only one of me, in my specific print and In case of garments I come in limited sizes only. Please search by size to find the best fit for you. See our size guide.
