Loose-fitting with light-weight cotton weave, this garment is one of the few exceptions to prototyping a new product. It came out beautifully constructed on the first try, showing our seamstress partner Betty's talent. We are delighted to include this unisex and flexible wear garment to our newest garment offerings.
Naturally-dyed cotton threads prepared by our partners at San Juan la Laguna, then taken to our newest weaving partner Darío at his workshop. Garment construction by the talented Betty in San Antonio Aguas Calientes, with coordination of all the pieces in-house at our studio in Antigua. So many talented hands together, plenty of teamwork involved!
The textile features brocade patterns in naturally-dyed indigo. Woven on a large wooden pedal loom.
Fit: This top fits loosely and does not have buttons. We think it is suitable for wearing open for women's sizes S-L. Would you like a custom size made for you? Please reach out at hello@kakawdesigns.com; we'd love to make your garment!
