Tina Gathered Midi Skirt Ikat Check Cotton

Tina skirt in a navy and rust ikat weave cotton, handwoven in India.

Ikat is a resist dyeing technique where the threads used for weaving are dyed beforehand.  The Ikat threads are bound in a pattern so that the threads covered by the binding 'resist' the dye, creating the characteristic design. 

Tina is a midi length gathered skirt cut with plenty of fullness and an elasticated waist for flexibility of fit.  Wear it at the waist or the hip according to your personal preference. 

A sustainable wardrobe staple, it’s simplicity and versatility means it works for any season, with a sweater in cooler months or a t shirt in warm weather.

Hand made in our studio in London.  As the fabric is handwoven, there may be some irregularities in the weave, this is all part of their charm and are not classed as flaws.

Please note colour may bleed in initial wash.  For the first couple of washes, wash separately and place the fabric in the washing machine drum with a handful of table salt. This will help fix the dye to prevent it running.
