A Quick Look At Our Iconic Indigo Collection
When we came to know that indigo dye has been given the title “blue gold” by many researchers in the past and that the word ‘indigo’ is a Greek term meaning “from India”, we just couldn’t resist designing a clothing collection around it!
As you already know, indigo became a rare commodity when India was under British control. However, times have changed.
Advanced technology allows us to recreate the quintessential indigo colour in machine-run factories now. Combine the ease of machinery with the feathery soft cotton fabric and you get 3 trendy but classy women’s Kurtas from Savi.
Before we begin, here is some background on HOW indigo block printing is done: first, indigo plant bundles are soaked to extract the beautiful, blue dye. At the same time, long cotton sheets are laid out to absorb the color
Hand-carved wooden blocks are used for applying a wax resist to the cotton fabric. Then, once the fabric has been dyed, the waxed areas continue to remain white whereas the rest of the sheet takes on the dynamic hues we are fans of.
Now, back to your new favourite line-up of Indigo print Kurtas!
