Masala Shirt - Handwoven Cotton - Copper Mosaic

Our Masala Shirt is a chance to experience the best of Maiwa's artisan cloth. A thoughtfully constructed one-size silhouette made from a patchwork of handwoven cloth. Each one is a colour-story of natural dyes.  

Sewn from exquisite artisan cloth; thread dyed with natural dyes and handwoven by village artisans in India. By dyeing the threads before weaving, there is an added depth and variance to the colour that celebrates the handcraft of the dyers and weavers who created it. 

This handwoven cotton shirt presents a mosaic structure, where multiple fabric panels are strategically combined to create a cohesive design. Each piece is unique - there may be the slightest variation between pieces.  The overall feeling with be similar to the shirt photographed.
