ABOUT THIS PRODUCT
The Srikandi dress captures the spirit of a legendary warrior through exquisite layered ruffles that flow like poetry in motion. Thoughtfully handcrafted by skilled artisans in Bali, this captivating lime green maxi transforms every step into an elegant statement, ensuring graceful movement throughout your day.
Named after the iconic female warrior from the Hindu epic Mahabharata, this dress embodies courage, strength, and wisdom. The pleated design features a classic button-down closure and flows into a long, dramatic silhouette that celebrates both artisan craft and conscious design.
Crafted from 100% deadstock cotton sourced from leftover fabric originally produced for larger fashion houses, each piece gives new life to high-quality materials that would otherwise go to waste. This naturally limited approach creates something meaningful while reducing textile impact and honoring the artisan hands that shape each ruffle.
