PLAY THE PATTERN
Maiwa's iconic design and style works anywhere. These garments beg to be combined with each other — and yet each one is strong enough to stand on its own. Comfortable clothing, ideal for travel. Play the dot. Play the pattern. 




SLOW CLOTHES  —  CLEVERLY MADE
The pants have a slight crop and a simple waist. Welt pockets are an unexpected feature, cunningly placed so they don't break the block print pattern. The tank tops are reversible - with a different feature print inside and outside.

MEET THE ARTISANS
These garments are naturally dyed on organic cotton by two traditional block printing communities. The small dots and circles are printed by the same community that does the wonderfully complex Ajrakh printing of Gujarat, India. The floral prints and leaf motifs are done by the equally famous Dabu printers of Rajasthan, India.
