{"product_id":"chanderi-story-dress","title":"The Chanderi Story Dress","description":"\u003cp\u003eA column dress in a linen–chanderi blend, cut close through the shoulder and released from the waist into a slow, unhurried fall. It is the piece we return to when nothing else feels right.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eThe cloth\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eChanderi is woven in Madhya Pradesh on pit looms, and the blend we use carries a linen warp against a chanderi weft. The result is a fabric with the dry hand of linen and the faint transparency chanderi is known for — it holds a crease the way paper does, softening a little more with each wash.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBecause the yarn is hand-spun before it is dyed, no two lengths take colour identically. Slight variation across a panel is characteristic of the cloth and not a fault in it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eThe making\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEach dress passes through four hands: the weaver, the dyer, the cutter, and a single tailor who assembles the garment start to finish rather than working a section on a line. A finished dress takes roughly nine hours of stitching.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eFrench seams throughout — no overlocking anywhere on the garment\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eHand-finished hem, blind-stitched, 4 cm deep\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCorozo buttons, cut from tagua nut, dyed to match\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSide-seam pockets, bar-tacked at both ends of the opening\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFit\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCut for a relaxed fit through the body with a defined shoulder. The model is 5'8\" and wears a size S. If you are between sizes, take the smaller — the linen relaxes about half a size with wear.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eCare\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHand wash cold, or machine wash on a wool cycle inside a mesh bag. Dry flat in shade; direct sun will fade the madder dye within a season. Press on the reverse while faintly damp. Do not tumble dry, and do not bleach.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWorn well, this dress should outlast the decade.
