The dress is made from handwoven fabrics produced by local artisans in several regions, preserving traditional weaving techniques. Localized fabric shrinkage shapes the cloth, forming organic three dimensional folds instead of cutting material away. Each pleat position is fixed by hand and mapped onto cardboard for small batch production. The sculptural folds move with the body and offer both comfort and structure.
