Description

This plain cotton dress strikes the perfect balance between simplicity and style, offering both comfort and fashion in one piece. Made from 100% handwoven cotton, it is naturally dyed for a soft, breathable feel, making it gentle and safe for the skin. Whether you’re heading out for an evening with friends, attending an office party, or enjoying a casual day out, this dress is versatile enough to suit any occasion. The front features elegant coconut shell buttons that add a touch of earthiness to the design, enhancing its organic charm with thoughtful, sustainable details.

The fabric’s weave is plain, with a yarn count of Warp-2X40 and Weft-20, and the dye is derived from different organic sources like areca nut and indigo, natural ingredients known for their eco-friendly properties. As these dyes are sourced from the roots, bark, peels, and pulp of plants, slight variations in shade may occur due to natural factors like weather conditions, adding to the uniqueness of each piece.

Please note that the actual product may slightly differ from the images due to the handcrafted nature of the fabric. Minor imperfections in the weave are a testament to the craftsmanship involved in the handwoven process, giving each piece its own distinct character. Although the garment is pre-shrunk, some minimal shrinkage—up to 5%—can still occur.

Each cotton dress is one-of-a-kind, reflecting the care, tradition, and sustainability behind its creation.

To care for your handwoven, naturally dyed dress, follow these washing instructions:
  1. Hand Wash Recommended: Use cold water to preserve the natural dyes and fabric quality. Avoid using hot water, as it may cause color fading and shrinkage.
  2. Mild Detergent: Opt for a gentle, eco-friendly detergent that is free of harsh chemicals. Avoid bleach and strong detergents, as they can damage the fabric and alter the color.
  3. Do Not Soak: Avoid soaking the dress for long periods, as natural dyes may bleed.
  4. Dry in Shade: After washing, gently squeeze out excess water (avoid wringing) and hang the dress in the shade to dry. Direct sunlight can fade the natural dyes over time.
  5. Iron on Low Heat: If needed, iron the dress on a low heat setting while it’s still slightly damp to avoid creases. Use a protective cloth if necessary.
  6. Dry Clean (Optional): For delicate care, you can opt for eco-friendly dry-cleaning services.

These steps will help preserve the quality, color, and texture of the dress over time.
