The delicacy of florals has been captured on a delicate fabric like linen with such precision and heart.

The Details

The watercolor effect looks great on an effortless fabric like linen. The watercolor motifs are expertly placed throughout the fabric to not become overbearing. Since natural fibers take paint better than synthetics, we have used unbleached muslins in this collection. The botanical motifs are painted as per the subdued colors of the outfits like lilac and white. The painted motifs too are subtle and delicate in design, giving a unique look to the entire ensemble. These watercolor motifs are expertly done so that they do not wash out. The linen fabric has been produced with our signature in house method to retain the ‘Manan’ factor in the outfits.

Where to wear?

A casual stroll in the park or a solo coffee date, the outfit works exceedingly well when worn. It can also be worn for a cafe meet up with friends, especially at times when the weather becomes unbearing. The primary colors of the collection have been chosen keeping these occasions in mind. The subtle hand painted motifs create a serene aura around the outfit - so that it can be worn both casually and formally. Outfits like shirts and kurtis can either be teamed with your organic jeans or with linen pants from any of our other collections. The kurta sets are perfect when stepping out for running your daily errands.
