mon (Assamese) - mind

This dress is hand-spun and hand-woven by our team in and sewn in a small studio in South Delhi. The silk is called and cultivated by Assamese tribal communities South West of Guwahati. It is a wild silk and the moth leaves a hole in the cocoon as it has to be empty before it can be processed. Therefore it has a structure which is rather similar to linen.
