This lightweight jacket features 100% cotton that is carefully hand-woven and hand-dyed. It is a true testament to the slow fashion movement, as it takes 60 days to produce enough fabric for just 50 pieces. The interior lining is made from excess fabric from other garments, making it a sustainable and eco-friendly choice.
Why we love Otherwise:
Otherwise brings the beauty of traditional textile art to modern fashion, offering limited edition shirts that are hand-printed, hand-woven, and hand-dyed using techniques like blockprint and shibori. Founded in Lisbon, Portugal, they collaborate closely with artisans in India under fair trade principles, ensuring every piece is crafted with care and respect for the craft. With a commitment to eco-friendly, organic materials and slow, mindful production, Otherwise creates beautiful, one-of-a-kind pieces that are as ethical as they are stunning.
