STORY
Kick back in a lightweight cotton robe from Aravali, in Jaipur, India. Block printing is a labor-intensive method of hand-printing fabric. The artisans imprint the cloth with a wooden block featuring a hand carved design. The printer moves from left to right, dipping the design block into the dye and stamping it onto the cloth.
