Hot pink ikat fabric and grande Oscar de La Renta
We have something in common with great Oscar de la Renta. It’s not only love for Uzbek ikat fabrics. It is specifically love for hot pink and white ikat fabric.
Take a look at this summer dress from Oscar de la Renta’s Resort 2015 collection. This is a dress made of a Ikat pattern fabric combined with a gingham pattern. I don’t know if the fabric is a handmade ikat fabric. From the description of the dress at www.matchesfashion.com this dress is Ikat and gingham print versus being a real ikat fabric. You can read more about a difference between ikat fabrics and ikat print fabrics following this link.
Ikat table runner perfect for Thanksgiving dinners
This ikat table runner is something we have been planning to make for a long time. We finally got around to making it. The idea was to make something that will go well with a pumpkin pie, cinnamon and nutmeg theme. In other words, in choosing this ikat fabric for a table runner Thanksgiving was already on our mind.
We like to keep things natural
The same is true for this Ikat table runner. We paired handwoven Uzbek Ikat fabric with an unbleached very natural cotton fabric. The goal was to have both fabrics organic, soft and pleasant to touch.
Free shipping on orders $99!
It looks like air shipping is getting somewhat normalized. Orders are reaching Americas and Europe within a somewhat reasonable timeframe. Hallelujah!
This being said, post office workers are still reluctant to give us a timeframe within which orders will reach a specific country. This is understandable because each country is handling its Covid-19 situation differently. From recent order deliveries we feel that shipping with registered air mail is going back to pre-pandemic days. That is delivery within 10-14 business days to major metropolitan areas. Rural areas may take longer. However, if you need your order by a certain date please contact us so we can arrange your shipping with DHL, FedEx or Aramex.
