Lotus Silk Unisex Kurta Shirt

This made-to-order garment is crafted with care and sustainability at its core, featuring lotus stem fiber fabric, coconut shell buttons, and plant-based dyes. Here's a breakdown of its eco-friendly qualities and care instructions:

Product Details:

• Fabric: Lotus stem fiber, sourced from a certified supplier who imports the yarn from Myanmar. The fabric is handwoven in Himachal Pradesh, India. It is left un-dyed for a natural look.
• Buttons: Made from coconut shells, adding a natural touch.
• Dyes: All dyes are 100% plant-based.
• Thread: GOTS-certified 100% cotton stitching thread.
• Packaging: Packaging is made from waste denims or canvases, collected from companies, friends, and family, promoting reuse.
• Tag: The tag is crafted from waste lotus fabric, stamped with walnut dye.
• End of Life: The garment can be safely composted after long use, repair, and re-use, ensuring it is biodegradable and environmentally friendly.

Key Features:

• No Fusing: No adhesive fusing is used in the garments to avoid non-sustainable materials.
• Handloom Production: As a baby brand, garments are produced in small batches with handloom weaving and vegetable dyes, leading to unique imperfections that add to their character.

Washing Instructions for Lotus Silk:

• Turn your garment inside out and submerge it in a bucket of cold water.
• Use a high-quality liquid detergent (avoid chlorine bleach) and stir gently.
• Leave for three minutes, then gently agitate the garment for 3-5 minutes to remove dirt.
• Rinse under cold water until detergent is fully washed out.
• Use a towel to absorb excess water—never twist or wring the fabric.
• Dry in the shade to avoid sun damage and dye fading. Avoid tumble drying, as lotus silk is delicate.

Care Instructions for Plant-Dyed Fabric:

• Wash only when necessary, at 40°C on a short program.
• Air garments outside in the shade to freshen them up.
• Avoid leaving wet clothes sitting, as colors may leach.
• Always dry in the shade to preserve dye.
• Use a gentle, pH-neutral detergent.

The product embraces natural imperfections in weaving and dyeing, a reflection of the handmade process, making each piece distinct and authentically crafted.
