Each of our garments are made individually by experienced craftsmen, ensuring that the quality of construction is at its highest every step of the way. The heritage Dori embroidery is fashioned from four yarns finely hand-twisted together and every pattern is manually embroidered by an artisan for a unique, one-of-a-kind effect. Featuring luxuriously soft, breathable cotton, utmost care is taken to steam and press every single seam and check every stitch during the extensive process of making each piece.

Dori embroidery is a 3-dimensional embroidery technique originating in India, where threads are laid out in patterns and couched in place. An ancient and highly sought-after craft gets a face-lift in this collection, where we have twisted multiple threads together for subtle raised effect and drawn inspiration from the engraved motifs of the Taj Mahal to create delicate floral patterns.

Cotton has a long history of cultivation in India, since it grows so well in warmer climates. It’s produced all across India and remains vital to the country’s economy. A natural, eco-friendly fiber that has far-reaching benefits for every aspect of your life, cotton is pretty special. We love using breathable cotton fabrics in our light, airy summer collections and heavier cottons in our fall collection. Since traditional cotton production requires large amounts of water, we work with recycled cotton whenever possible.
