Sobremesa Cotton Ikat Shirt | Bright Blue

A dropped shoulder contributes to the relaxed feel of our cotton shirt, which features a large-scale broken check ikat pattern. The cotton yarns are carefully bound and dyed to create the pattern, then hand-woven to create a soft fabric. The weavers work under master artisan Bikshapati Kolaan in the village of Yellanki in Andhra Pradesh. The collar has a loop closure allowing it to be worn open or buttoned up. Part of our Menswear collection.

Ikat cotton. Camp collar. Loop closure at collar. Relaxed fit.

An age-old and complex technique of patterning cloth, whereby the pattern is pre-determined by tie-dyeing the yarn prior to weaving. The characteristic haziness of the pattern that emerges is a pleasing result of this hand process.
This fabric is handloom woven. Weaving irregularities are a pleasing characteristic of handloom woven items and should not be considered a fault.
