Meadows Hand Painted Dress

Crafted from 100% cotton fibers and natural materials, the Meadows Hand-Painted Dress is made from soft Mulmul, naturally dyed using indigo, iron; and marigolds collected from temples and repurposed for creating dyes.

This halter-neck design features stitched pleats at the neckline and is cinched with an olive Kala Cotton tie at the neck, allowing for easy adjustability and a comfortable fit across various body sizes. The flared silhouette offers a free-flowing, relaxed feel, while the vibrant, hand-painted colours add a playful touch.

Lines of Kantha embroidery adorn the armhole, and the reversible design allows you to wear the dress with either the back or front facing forward, enhancing its versatility.
