Authentic craftsmanship
Over the years, Gudrun has created collections printed with traditional woodblocks and dyed with natural pigments such as indigo, pomegranate and kashish. Each item of clothing is the result of many intricate processes and a deep mastery of textile techniques. Whether you choose the dress, jacket, blouse, trousers or plush cardigan from this collection, take a moment to savour the feeling. Enjoy the beauty and touch of handcrafted artistry. Because every step is performed entirely by hand, each piece bears its own subtle colour variations, and this gives the collection an undeniable charm!
Block-printed organic cotton clothes
This is a uniquely distinctive colour scheme. The garments are dipped first in indigo, then once in pomegranate, which produces the green shade. So you see, the process of creating a collection using natural dyes involves many steps.
Indigo holds a cherished place in our textile lovers’ heart. It is simply fascinating watching the dye come to life in a vat in Bagru. Then seeing how the fabric or garment, when it leaves the vat, changes from yellow-green to deep indigo blue. It really is a magical moment!
When patterns meet
Our kimono is handcrafted – flowers on one side, stripes on the other.
The red colour in our Natural dyes collection comes from Indian madder. It is a climbing plant that is cultivated in India and other countries. The plant’s scientific name is Rubia cordifolia and its roots are used in traditional Chinese medicine.
Craftsmanship at its best – dyed with natural pigments
This beautiful collection of handcrafted creations has everything you could wish for. A large flower, a small flower and a stripe – the patterns are all printed with wooden blocks using indigo and other authentic natural dyes. As the natural dyes fade, a patina develops over time, enhancing the unique character of the clothes. Our lovely little cardigan is also dyed with natural pigments that produce soft, muted hues. Stripes or small flowers? Our kimono offers both with its reversible style.
