Description

Inspired by open skies, slow mornings, and mindful living, the Sky Stories Shirt is designed for women who appreciate understated elegance and purposeful craftsmanship.

Made from handwoven khadi, this relaxed-fit shirt offers exceptional breathability, softness, and all-day comfort. Its versatile silhouette pairs effortlessly with trousers, skirts, shorts, or layered over dresses, making it an essential piece for a conscious wardrobe.

Rather than relying on synthetic dyes, the deep charcoal-black hue is achieved through a natural dyeing process using rescued pomegranate peels collected from restaurants and local fruit shops in Wayanad. These food by-products are carefully transformed into natural dye and modified with iron to create a rich, earthy black with beautiful depth and character.

Every piece is individually hand embroidered by women artisans, providing meaningful livelihood opportunities while preserving traditional embroidery techniques.

The natural dyeing process is carried out by Nandu, whose expertise ensures that every garment celebrates the beauty of handcrafted textiles and the uniqueness of natural colours.

No two shirts are exactly alike—each carries subtle variations that reflect the authenticity of natural dyeing and handmade craftsmanship.

The Story Behind This Piece

Every Sky Stories Shirt begins with a second chance.

Pomegranate peels that would otherwise be discarded are collected from restaurants and fruit vendors across Wayanad. Through traditional natural dyeing techniques, these rescued materials are transformed into beautiful colour instead of becoming waste.

The fabric is then carefully iron-modified to create its signature charcoal-black shade before being hand embroidered by women artisans whose skills bring every garment to life.

The result is more than a shirt—it is a story of regeneration, craftsmanship, and people coming together to create something meaningful.
