Details:
Our partner family, the Saheli Women, co-created this gorgeous ikat with a weaving village in South India — showing us the slow, methodical process of creating custom ikat weaves. A true labor of love, these textiles make our heart flutter! Midi length, with adjustable tie shoulders, and baby-elastic back detail for ease. Our handloomed ikat is created by a weaving family in Telangana, and then handstitched by our partners, the Saheli Women. Handmade in India.
