JK-37C

The outer fabric uses 100% hemp thread for the warp and weft. Hemp is a strong fiber, but it gradually becomes more comfortable against the skin over time, and you can enjoy the change in texture from hemp to cotton-like. The cool feel that is characteristic of hemp persists even after repeated washing, making it comfortable to wear even in the middle of summer. Please refer to the article by Yoshida Shinichiro, Director of the Modern Linen Research Institute , for the history of hemp cloth, and to Boeken's article for details on the differences between hemp, ramie, and flax. The lining and edges are made of khadi, which is hand-spun and hand-woven in West Bengal, India, with both the warp and weft threads being hand-spun. For more information on hand-spinning, please refer to the link to the outer fabric spinning section and the blog of our supplier, CALICO . The unevenness created by hand-spinning and hand-weaving relatively short-fiber desi cotton gives it a texture like a second skin, and is beautiful even when held up to light. The occasional random borders are created by the fine changes in yarn lots used in the handwork, and are also one of the characteristics of the fabric. The design is a reversible dress with dolman sleeves. The sleeves have no seams, giving it a simple look, and the pattern is designed to follow the silhouette of the wearer, creating a beautiful line. The placket has a long string, so you can wear it however you like by adjusting the way you tie it. The side has a long slit, making it easy to move around in even though it is long. There is a pocket on the surface.
