Conditions Apply Aleta Dress

We love this stunning dress, designed for us by Conditions Apply who, as part of its ethical and sustainable drive, has chosen to curate a unique Unesco recognised craft as part of its upcoming collection.

"Jamdani” is one of the most significant achievements in cultural heritage of textiles, requiring skills mostly passed on over generations. Elevated to an art form, based on carefully hand spun cotton yarns, the fabrics are handwoven on special looms with intricate geometric motifs over a delicate muslin base. It’s very fine and high count yarns results in a uniquely soft hand feel and drape.

Such crafts, are a key driver of rural employment generation which in turn allows remote village communities as well as families to remain together while avoiding social dislocation and the pitfalls of rapid urbanization. Crafted, considered, handmade and ethically fashioned pieces encourage us to seek a more long term and soul-full satisfaction.

Special features of the dress include a delicate red ruffle which lines the neckline and it is finished at the back with button fastenings. The dress is midi length, sleeveless and features a relaxed waist. 

The skirt is lined and features two functioning pockets.
