Gujrati Green

Graceful and feminine, this blouse is designed by Isha Jain. She selects handloomed cotton in bright lime green for the scoop-neck tunic. Ornate motifs in vivid rose exemplify the ancient Indian block print technique, and beads, applied by hand, adorn the placket. The top slips over the head.

As is typical of genuine handloomed fabric, there are tiny slubs throughout. This occurs when a thread runs out, and the weaver extends it by twisting a new thread together with the old.
