Curator's note
Tinted Shades is crafted from handwoven silk in a beautiful balance of grey and blue hues. The dress has an overlap bodice with ruffled details on the edge of the neckline to provide a romantic element that is balanced out with a broad belt at the waist. The knife pleats on the waist bottom and ruffled elbow sleeves enhance the dreamy silhouette of the dress. It has abstract hand embroidery in coral motifs on the sleeves in a darker shade of blue with soothing pink flowers. Sujani and kantha techniques are used to create detailed flower motifs on the bodice of the dress to tie in these signature elements from the current collection.
The designer story
A sustainable fashion brand initiative, The Loom Art, works on loom-made fashion clothing and accessories. Beginning the journey in 2017, The Loom Art is slowly marking its name in countries across the globe. A creative lifestyle brand based in Jaipur, India, the idea at The Loom Art is to generate fashion for a cause, thus reinvent fashion lifestyles, one piece at a time. Born out of looms, the brand wants you to invest in their story which lives a lifetime through its statement of hand-embroidery on an organic bed of handspun textiles. The brand wants to stand out with their sustainable approach yet not compromise on the style quotient. Another important ideology of the brand is to resurrect the dying culture and heritage of artisans by sustaining the craft of hand embroidery. The Loom Art believes that every fabric is a canvas to paint it with your art.
