One of a kind garment crafted from Barnarasi silk fabric, this kimono features a vibrant magenta base enriched with delicate gold woven motifs that shimmer subtly across the surface. The fabric’s soft translucency and gentle sheen give the piece an elegant, airy feel, while the warm golden trim along the collar and front panel adds a striking contrast and refined finish.
The open-front design enhances versatility, while the classic straight sleeves offer timeless balance and effortless comfort. A richly patterned hem detail completes the look with a touch of artisanal charm.

One-of-One Craftsmanship
Every Sari for Change garment is entirely one-of-one.
Crafted from reclaimed heritage textiles, each piece carries its own history, character, and unique markings. Variations in weave, embroidery, texture, colour, and minor imperfections are part of the beauty of the regenerative process and should not be considered faults.
These characteristics are a reflection of the textile's journey and make each garment impossible to replicate.
Created in Johannesburg through the Sacred Economy.
