MATERIAL AND CARE

The dress is made from rustic handwoven Khadi fabric. Khadi is made by hand, the production does not require any fuel and produces little water waste, making Khadi sustainable and eco-friendly fabric. Using Khadi fabric we give a support to the local artisans and helping to maintain traditional production methods. Raw Matka silk is not as shiny and glossy as normal Mulberry silk, by texture it might look similar to linen, yet has all qualities of silk. Cocoons for this silk were collected by hand in the north of India after the butterfly already had left. It got its name from a Hindi word 'Ahimsa' which means 'Non-violence'. This method does not kill the silkworms to extract silk. It is also known as peace or vegan silk.
Silk is delicate fabric that should be treated with care. Hand wash carefully in cold water with a special silk detergent. Avoid spraying perfume or deodorant on the fabric and don't dry silk on direct sunlight or drier machine.
All of the garments of Iana Lana are made from 100% natural materials. Fair-trade, ethically made and eco friendly.
