made from %100 heavyweight linen with %100 linen appliques in Aurora's patterns, hand embroidered with %100 cotton Japanese Sashiko thread

This dress is made with so much care and is intended to last for decades!

by using Sashiko thread and traditional Japanese mending techniques, Aurora created a dress that is durable, can be ironed, and will look great on you for a long time : the thread interlocks with the layers of fabric, creating a very strong applique and the embroidery is more than merely decorative, it strengthens the fabric and adds a very soft, textural quilted feeling to it 

partial elastic waistband (no zipper) 
entry by putting it over your head
separate embroidered matching linen belt
wrap style but no openings or closures

*sensory people please note: the inside of this garment is covered with hundreds of embroidery knots and threads that touch directly against the skin*
