Material: 100% Cotton. Model is 176cm tall. Flat measurements: Shoulder: Free Bust: 55cm Length: 140cm **Hand block printing inherently involves slight misalignments or incomplete patterns, which is normal! These variations are precisely what give the prints their unique, handcrafted character and high degree of authenticity. Furthermore, the dyes are typically derived from natural minerals and plants. Due to varying climate conditions during the drying process, even the same dye can result in subtle color differences, making each batch of fabric uniquely hued. Considering these factors, those with a perfectionist inclination may wish to reconsider!** 1. Indian block print garments are usually dyed with natural plant and mineral pigments. As they are not fixed with chemical agents after dyeing, some color bleeding is expected during washing. Hand washing separately is strongly recommended to ensure the longevity of the garment. If machine washing is necessary, please use a suitably sized laundry bag and wash separately from light-colored items. However, this cannot guarantee the garment will remain undamaged! 2. These are vintage items, and as such, may show signs of wear consistent with their age. This can include minor loose threads, small stains, or tiny holes (any significant flaws will be noted in the description). If these do not detract from the overall appearance, they are considered acceptable. Those seeking perfection are advised not to purchase.
