A one-of-a-kind silk kimono featuring warm ivory tones, mustard gold, olive green and earthy brown paisley motifs. Delicate florals, intricate patterns and decorative borders celebrate the beauty of traditional Indian textile artistry.
The design features block print-inspired detailing, a centuries-old Indian textile tradition in which artisans hand-carve intricate designs into wooden blocks, then apply dye and press them onto fabric. Each impression forms part of a larger pattern, reflecting generations of craftsmanship and artistic heritage.
Crafted from lightweight reclaimed silk sari textile, the kimono drapes beautifully with a soft, fluid finish. Wide bell sleeves, a crossover neckline and an adjustable self-tie belt create an effortlessly elegant silhouette.

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.
