Tanda Dress - Kala Cotton - Sandpiper

A simple, easy dress for life by the water. Slip it on over a swimsuit after the beach, or wear it every day with your favourite sandals. With a relaxed boat neckline, long sleeves, and pockets, it is designed for comfort and the rhythm of coastal living.

Made with beautiful handwoven kala cotton cloth. Kala cotton is indigenous to the Kachchh region of India. It is highly sustainable and organic by nature, as farmers do not need to use any pesticides or synthetic fertilizers. All it needs to thrive is one monsoon a year. The final product is a desirable cotton with a natural fleck that softens with every wash. 

Kala cotton is an “old world” indigenous cotton which is adapted to low water requirements and extremely arid conditions. It is ecologically sustainable and makes the most exquisite cotton cloth.
