How are garments naturally dyed?
We use various techniques and materials for natural dyeing. Zooming out, the garments are cut in sewn in undyed natural fabrics, then washed, mordanted with aluminum sulfate, rinsed clean, and then submerged in the dyestuff solution.
The dyestuff solution can come from logwood shavings, Stinging nettle powder, cutch, susuzome soot, indigo (woad), various Bengala mud dyes, and many more as we expand each season.
