Description

One piece. No restock.

A one-of-a-kind pair of utility shorts created from 400 GSM V-Twill, reimagined through a sustainable design process by Anna Raphy.

The collection takes inspiration from “Achada” — the fabric traditionally placed underneath the main fabric spread during the hand block printing process. Instead of allowing this supporting fabric to become waste, Anna transformed these leftover textile layers into a statement patchwork design.

The result is a pair of structured, relaxed-fit shorts featuring multiple layered patch pockets, each carrying its own variation of colour, texture and character. Every patch reflects the imperfect beauty of a handmade process, making this piece genuinely individual.

Designed for those who appreciate slow fashion, textile stories and garments with a past, these shorts are as much a piece of craft as they are everyday clothing.

The Story Behind Achada

Achada is the fabric placed beneath the primary fabric during the block-printing process to protect the printing surface. Over time, these layers naturally collect traces of colour, dye and the marks of the craft process.

Rather than treating this material as waste, this collection gives it a second life — turning what would normally remain hidden beneath the printing table into the visible story of the garment.

A garment made from what was once overlooked. Made once, and never made the same way again.

Care & Craft

Hand wash in cold water with a mild detergent, or machine wash cold on a gentle cycle. Wash separately for the first few washes: hand-printed and naturally dyed fabrics can release a little colour at first, which is normal.

Do not bleach, soak or wring. Dry in the shade, inside out, to protect the colours. Iron on medium heat on the reverse side. Natural fibres soften with every wash, and slight shrinkage after the first wash is normal.

Handmade by artisans in Jaipur, India. Small variations in colour, print and finish are part of each piece's character, not defects.
