HAND BLOCK PRINTED

We collaborate with a family of 7th generation master printers in Bagru, India to create our block printed fabric.

Each part of the process of this ancient technique takes place in this community: hand carving blocks out of wood, hand printing the fabric using Azo-free dyes, and washing and setting the final textiles. Nature plays an important role in the process, from mineral rich water and the sun’s rays to plants and the earth, all used in various stages of printing.
Sizing

Cailey is 5'9" and wears a small.

Fits true to size with an intentionally loose fit. For a tighter fit in the bodice, size down. This is a swingy dress with a substantial amount of gathered fabric.

Length of size small from high point of shoulder: 44.5"
