In India, Kalamkari is an ancient tradition of hand-painting on cotton. This shirt dress carries on that heritage with five distinct hand-painted artworks — each brushstroke made by artisans near Bangalore. These are not prints, but true paintings on fabric, making every piece a wearable work of art.
The palette is subdued and elegant, and the cotton is soft and fine, offering both comfort and artistry. A rare treasure to add to your wardrobe.
Stylist Tip: Wear this hand-painted dress on its own with leather sandals for a simple statement, or layer it with a jacket or ruana in natural tones to highlight its artistry.
