Aparajita Tiered Dress

Product Code: KR07

Craft: Hand block printed

Fabric: Handwoven Chanderi cotton silk (Silk Warp; Cotton Weft)

Aparajita, a visually striking vivid indigo flower that carries wellness and botanical connotations.

The textile is handwoven chanderi, a lightweight, sheer, slightly crisp cotton-silk blend with the characteristic soft sheen chanderi is known for. The dress is hand printed  with a butterfly pea (aparajita) vine print , flowing floral vines in shades of blue and periwinkle with sage-green leaves and stems, in a dense, all-over trailing pattern. A maxi dress with a tiered skirt, the bodice has a soft surplice V-wrap, releasing at a raised waist seam into three distinct gathered tiers that fall to ankle length. Sits with a defined seam just below the natural waist, then three tiers of gathered fabric stack down the skirt, each separated by a delicate ruffled trim in white, this detail is repeated at the neckline and cuffs, tying the whole dress together.
