The Story

Our pure silk Maya Midi dress is ethically handmade using Ikat sustainable silk. Ikat weaving, known locally as “Mudmee”, is a traditional tie-dye method and the oldest form of pattern weaving in Thailand.

The desired pattern is created by hand-binding pure silk threads with tight wrapping before the dyeing and weaving process commences. This binding process takes time and the extreme skill of the weaver, both of which make Ikat silks prized by textile collectors the world over, slow fashion at it's finest! 

Maithong Suranaree Weaving Co-operative are the creators of this beautiful fabric. They are a family co-operative now on their 4th generation of weavers! It’s great to support a co-operative working so tirelessly through generations to preserve the precious skill of ancient Ikat weaving.

By purchasing The Maya Dress, you not only purchase a beautiful item of handmade clothing, but also a piece of pure silk textile art, that helps support the tradition of Ikat dyeing for many years to come. Thank you!

Fabric Care

To ensure your sustainable silk retains its charm and beauty for many years to come, we recommend the following:

Care

Take care to avoid extreme heat and direct sunlight when storing the product as this may cause colour fading and/or shrinkage. We recommend storing the product in a cool, shaded and dry place at all times. 

Cleaning

Dry-Clean only.  For extra care we recommend gentle dry-clean with hydrocarbon solvents, however, general dry-clean is also possible. 

Natural/Hand Dye

As with all natural/hand dyed products, some colour variation within and between items is normal. Natural/hand dyed products may bleed slightly when wet, so please follow cleaning instructions carefully.

Handwoven Fabric

Please note, all fabrics woven by hand may come with small knots, yarn pulls or short pieces of thread – these irregularities do not affect the quality or future durability of the product.  They act as an authenticity mark of fabric woven by hand and adds to the uniqueness and individualism of our products.
