Story Behind the Art:
'I grew up in a small, warm family environment. My mother has long specialized in batik and I often helped her. However, demand for batik work decreased and I worked with a friend making saa paper goods, for about two years. During this time, my brother resigned from his job to design cotton clothes. We grew up in an area renowned for traditional handicrafts, so we had the opportunity to learn many techniques and art forms.
'Our cotton designs focus on using natural materials for a modern lifestyle. We use the method of coiling thread to decorate a lot of the work. It also brings plenty of work to everyone involved, including people from different villages who help us transform cotton into different styles of clothing and decorative items. I'm proud of the fact that each item represents a collection of highly-skilled group of people.'
The handcrafted nature of this product will produce minor differences in design and sizing. Subtle variations will occur from piece to piece, adding to its unique qualities. Measurements may vary slightly.

I purchased both the top and skirt, and love them both. I have gained about 30 pounds over the last couple of years, and this skirt does a beautiful job of hiding the weight. I have received many compliments. Very good quality as well, it looks like I paid much more.
