Moss Reform Dress
The Moss Reform Dress is made using traditional Bengali home-spun, hand-woven, hand tie dyed, fine weight, Tussar silk Khadi fabric.
This dress can be worn many different ways and is a versatile, comfortable and stylish shape.
 
Sustainable Wild Silk also known as Forest Silk is so named in relation to the natural environment it is reared and crafted in.
The names Eri Silk, Tussar Silk or Matka silk are also used depending on the moth genus.
This Tussar Silk cloth is lightweight, fine and textured.  
It will arrive to you feeling quite starched but softens and drapes beautifully with wear.
 
 
The cut of the dress is wide and loose in the traditional artist Reform Dress style.
As such there is one free size option available. Fitting UK sizes 6 -16.
The dress can be worn belted with the fabric tie or worn loose. It is lovely worn on its own or layered with trousers and shirts.
 
The flat measurements of the garment are approximately:                   
Chest 58 cm 
Hip 63 cm
Length 130 cm
 
Traditional hand-spun, hand-woven, Bengali Silk Cotton Khadi:
  • Hand wash cold or dry clean
  • 100% Silk 
  • Made in Kolkata India
  • Variations/unevenness in the cloth may be viewed as the beautiful traces of the craftsperson's hand and are welcomed by Poetwear as the individual character of each piece.
  • The Poetwear label is hand stiched. The workshop asked for this detail as the embroidery is traditionally womans work whereas screenprinting work would go to the men.
