Kashmiri Crewel Linen Kaftan | navy
Our capsule Kashmiri Crewel Collection is made up of heirloom pieces, rooted in a long history of crewel stitch native to this long-fabled Himalayan paradise. The patterns of hand-embroidered crewel are inspired by the bold, organic motifs of Matisse’s cut outs, and are a fresh interpretation by us of a traditional & famed Kashmiri embroidery technique.
This style is our classic kaftan, reimagined in a mid-weight linen and fully lined, giving it a heavier, luxurious weight. Wear it alone, or over a turtle-neck and pants in cooler climes.
