Designed by the amazing, Sriparna, in Kolkata. This beautiful dress is handmade by her network of local artisans from traditional Bengali taant fabric. 

Crafted from the softest dark as the night sky indigo jamdani. Intricate, traditional Chand jamdani motifs, in pristine silver zari make up the dress. With noodle straps and a smocked back, we like to size up and wear this loose and easy on the bodice. The pinch gathers all around are finished by touches of thread detailing along the neckline and hem.

Taant begins with yarn handspun from local West Bengal cotton, and Sriparna designs her own jamdani motifs that are painstakingly included as the fabric is woven. Taant is the softest, lightest fabric you can wear; perfect for those long hot summers.
