Sustainability
Woven by hand by master weavers in Murshidabad and Banaras — two of India's most storied silk-weaving centres. The Arashi Shibori dyeing technique creates the collection's distinctive textured colour gradients by binding and dyeing the fabric on a pole — a meditative, labour-intensive process that cannot be replicated by machine. The hand embroidery on each piece is done by artisans at TheLoomart's studio, ensuring that no two garments are identical.

The Between The Lines collection is built around handwoven silk fabrics sourced from Murshidabad and Banaras — dyed using the Arashi Shibori technique, which creates the collection's signature textured, gradient surfaces. Each piece is finished with kantha embroidery, French knot work and free-hand embroidery by skilled artisans, making every garment a record of the craft that went into it.
