Linen Hemp Shirt Dress (Dark Plant Dye)
Fine-count linen forms the warp, while the weft alternates fine-count linen and hemp to give a textured, uneven weave. The open weave lets air pass through for comfort in the heat, and the natural crispness of linen and hemp makes it easy to wear in every season but winter. When dyed, the difference in how linen and hemp take colour brings out the weave pattern and enriches the fabric's character.
A front-opening shirt dress. The easy silhouette wears lightly, whether as an overlayer or on its own.
*There are knots and unevenness in the threads that are unique to natural materials. This is because we place importance on texture and use raw materials with uneven fibre lengths, so please consider this as part of the look. Please be careful not to pull on the knots in the threads too hard, as this may cause the threads to break and create holes in the fabric.
*Enjoy the unevenness of plant dyes and how they change over time. To prevent colour transfer, avoid using with light-coloured items, wash with neutral detergent, and dry in the shade. Sweat and light can cause discolouration, so store away from sunlight and fluorescent lights and handle with care. (Dark Walnut, Dark Mugwort, Dark Horse Chestnut)
*Enjoy the unevenness of plant dyes and how they change over time. To prevent colour transfer due to friction, avoid using with light-coloured items, wash separately with a neutral detergent, and dry in the shade. Sweat and sunlight can cause discolouration, so please store and handle with care. (Persimmon Tannin & Bengala, Persimmon Tannin & Sumi Ink, Natural Indigo & Turmeric & Sumi Ink)
*Dyed with natural indigo. The colour will become lighter with repeated use. As there is a possibility of colour transfer, avoid using with light-coloured items at first, wash with a neutral detergent, and dry in the shade. Each item has a slightly different colour and size. (Dark Natural Indigo)
