Shades of MAPS – Green

Anjitha Reji August 24, 2023

Our MAPS collection comes to life featuring four colours – red, indigo, yellow and green which were obtained using naturally synthesized dyeing agents. The captivating green colour in this collection is a result of a meticulous and traditional dyeing method, showcasing the harmony of nature’s hues. Here’s a sneak-peek into our design process, from inspiration to execution.

Rooted in time-honored techniques, we created a verdant palette for our textiles by harnessing the yellow tones of turmeric and the blue hues of indigo. This method requires multiple dye baths, with the fabric being first dyed with turmeric and then over-dyed with indigo. By rediscovering these natural colorants, we gained a deeper appreciation for the beauty that can be found in nature and in cultural heritage.

Further, our skilled artisans at Kutch breathe life into these colours and the designer’s concepts by transforming them into wearable art using custom made blocks and printing them precisely on in pre-decided patterns by hand.

These dyed and printed fabrics are later cut, stitched and finished into final outfits at our Ahmedabad studio by our in-house team before it reaches our stores and website.
