100% handloomed cotton
100% plant dye
Gita is an absolute Renaissance woman with our production partners in Nepal! Talented at many things, she helps out wherever it is needed, and is always up for an adventure💫
The women of our incredible partner collective in Nepal handloom the cotton, then color that fabric with gentle dyes, and finally hand make each piece. This hand loomed cotton just gets softer and comfier with wear.
Each garment will be slightly different & unique due to the special nature of the handmade process.
Thank you for supporting ethical & sustainable fashion!
