Hand block printed

The making of Peony

Hand block printing is a traditional artisan technique that uses hand-carved wooden blocks to print fabric by hand. Rooted in Indian craft traditions, the process is slow and highly skilled, beginning with carving wooden blocks and carefully preparing the fabric.

Lovely comfy dress but quite dressy. . . . .

Daughters of India

We’re so glad to hear you’re loving how comfortable the Sundress Midi is. It’s such a beautiful piece that can easily be dressed up or down depending on the occasion. 🌸✨

Absolute keeper! Great quality, love the unique block printing! I ordered a small and its more than enough room. Im normally a medium, size 28 jeans. I think a XS would have worked too. Recommend sizing down.
