The craft
Sequin. Made by hand.
Crafted in Jaipur with the block-printing and embroidery traditions of Rajasthan. The sequin embellishment is worked onto georgette base fabric — each sequin hand-applied in Jaipur's embroidery workshops where multi-layer garments like this are cut and assembled in sequence to maintain the ruffle fall.
From the founder's letter
"Every layer catches light differently as you move"
Styling notes
From Ketki.
Stiletto sandals in nude or gold — the layers need vertical height
Ear cuffs or ear climbers rather than chandeliers; the neckline is already asymmetric
A slim clutch — this silhouette carries itself

Care of the piece
Looked after, this lasts.
- Dry clean only — the layered ruffle construction and sequin work require professional handling
- Hang on a padded hanger; folding this silhouette creates permanent creases in the ruffle layers
