Size GuideCare InstructionsManufactring process
Made from organically produced cruelty-free silk fabric made by fairly paid skilled artisans in Jharkhand (India), botanically hand-dyed in our sutdio in Marseille (South of France), sewn and hand-pleated in a one-hundred-year-old family workshop in Marseille (South of France).

Off-white is dyed with myrobalan tree, grey-brown is dyed with acacia tree and a touch of iron, beige is dyed with acacia tree, pink is dyed with cochineal bugs, orange-red and red are dyed with madder roots. 

Each plissé is unique, with slight color variation, waves of pleating and flaws inherent to the hand dyeing and hand pleating process. We consider these artifacts of their production and proof of their authenticity.


The pleating on silk is not permanent, in order to preserve it we recommend to keep away from water and suggest professional soft dry clean only. The pleating will evolve and soften over time as you wear it, in order to maintain it in its best condition, we advise to always store the garments gently rolled-up in its fabric pouch. Botanically dyed colors may fade if left in the sun, in order to preserve them we recommend storing the pieces in a dark place.
