ABOUT THE FABRIC
Lightweight 100% cotton fabric, sheer and wrinkled, woven in double-layers. The fabric gets this wrinkled texture that's totally intentional as a byproduct of the bleaching process. Bleaching is done on the yarn before the dyeing and weaving process. And get this – the fabric is woven in double layers for extra strength without sacrificing any of that softness. It's like wearing a cozy double-layered sweater, but way cooler and more breathable. The fabric ends up a little heavier since it's got two layers going on but that extra weight means it's super sturdy and tough. The best part is: there is no need for ironing. Those wrinkles make the fabric look effortlessly stylish straight out of the box. It's like your favorite pair of jeans that you've worn in just right.

Raw cotton comes with all these short fibers and tiny particles mixed in. Not the absolute best for making soft, luxurious fabric. That’s where the combing comes in. This cotton goes through special combing machines that literally comb out all the short fibers and impurities. This is done before spinning the fiber into yarn. The mechanism not only works like untangling massive knots in your hair but also filters out particles so that only the purest cotton fibers remain. The C stands for comb, 100 refers to thread count, or the number of threads per every inch of fabric. 100 falls in the mid-range. It's not super high so it is breathable but it's definitely not low either. Once done with the combing, the resulting material is soft and glossy, ready to be woven into these amazing apparel items like the Peoples Uniforms and Cotton Drifter.

Initially, the fabric is constructed to have its colors removed, creating a blank canvas. By stripping away the original colors resulting in a yellowish-white hue, the fabric is prepped for a traditional dye wash. This step is crucial as it lays the groundwork for the intricate patterns and prints applied later either by hand or tie-dyed.

Some of our best-selling tie-dye pieces are the Rialto Dress, Calypso Drawstring, Catalina Palazzos. Tie-dye has a rich history and cultural significance, with variations in techniques and patterns found across different cultures. Early examples of tie-dye have been found in places like Peru, China, and Africa, suggesting its widespread adoption across continents. In Asia, typical tie-dye processes are Mudmee in Thailand, Shibori in Japan, and Bandhani in India. Trade routes, like the Silk Road, facilitated the spread of tie-dye techniques and textiles across Eurasia. Tie-dye fabric is created through a resist dyeing technique where sections of fabric are bound (tied) before dyeing, resulting in unique, vibrant, and often abstract patterns. Tie-dye involves twisting, folding, pleating, or crumpling fabric, then binding it tightly with string or rubber bands. The tied areas resist the dye, creating patterns where the dye cannot penetrate. The resulting patterns are unique and can range from simple to complex, depending on the folding and binding techniques used.
