The Bandhani
Collection
Futuristic. Textured. Bold.
Bandhani, a 1500-year old resist dye technique emerging from the mists of history, is translated into a futuristic aesthetic. From minuscule pin-pricks to maximal polka-dots, we’ve engineered concentrations of bandhani vs negative space for maximum impact.
Reminiscent of a code, every dot holds the print of the maker: each pinch of fabric, while held between the artisan’s fingers, is individually wrapped in thread to resist the dye; an extraordinarily laborious process with a unique result.

Our linen, handwoven in West Bengal by a weavers association, retains the exquisite bounce and drape that makes this durable, comfortable fabric so special. It is the canvas upon which we explore the bounds of maximal bandhani.
This collection connects humble origins with an ultra-modern aesthetic: a testament to the enduring power of handmade design.
Stitched by brothers Parvez & Lal in Delhi.
