A slightly cropped tank that is a little longer in the back than the front. Pin tucks on the upper shoulder and back add a lovely textured detail, while jewel-like shell buttons line the front. Looks great worn closed or as an open layer.
Sewn from beautiful handwoven kala cotton cloth. Kala cotton is indigenous to the Kachchh region of India. It is highly sustainable and organic by nature, as farmers do not need to use any pesticides or synthetic fertilizers. All it needs to thrive is one monsoon a year. The final product is a desirable cotton with a natural fleck that softens with every wash.
Kala cotton is an old world indigenous cotton which is adapted to low water requirements and extremely arid conditions. It is ecologically sustainable and makes the most exquisite cotton cloth.
