Pure Indian cotton hand block printed long sleeve dress with button fastener at back of neck, gathered full skirt.
This stunning seven colour block print features pineapples in pink on a bright turquoise background. Seven different blocks were carved, one for each colour, and the pattern was built up slowly printing one colour at a time all over the cloth and allowing it to dry between processes. This is timeless slow fashion in action made by skilled artisans and where there is a tiny overlap or slightly incorrect block placement it’s a highly prized feature in India as a way to tell if the cloth was genuinely hand printed.
