Handwoven India
"BLEEDING" MADRAS
This garment Is Made From
HAND WOVEN
INDIA MADRAS
India Madias is an unusual
cotton fabric, handwoven in
pit looms of native dyed and
spun yarns in the small vill
ages of rural India. The re
sults are extremely individu
alistic patterns and colors and
no two lengths of cloth are ex
< actly alike. These native dyes
are used in excess so that with
each washing the dyes run
somewhat into the water, lea*
ving the cloth softer in color
and touch, and more beautiful
each time.
It is this "bleeding" that gives
your garment its distinctively
muted and subdued colorings
characteristic of
