This spring Babaghuri comes with colours derived from the earth: grey from earth containing volcanic ash, soft yellow from earth from Provence, and light pink from
amethyst-bearing earth. The use of earth as a dye is an ancient method known as hanizome. Babaghuri is using this hanizome for dyeing the light-weight cotton T-shirt,
long-sleeved V-neck, and cardigan. The three styles are also available in white.

The cold winter days still linger, but our Babaghuri shops are ready for the arrival of spring.
Our handspun-handwoven silk/cotton jackets and coats are accented with a water ripple pattern. Ａ hand-sewn finish completes the hemp/cotton short jackets and the half-length coats are handwoven into a fine check pattern. We have used uneven cotton thread to give texture to the jersey jackets. And to coordinate with these jackets, we have light, airy skirts and pants.
Natural plant dyes, indigo and charcoal ink dyes add colour to the whole collection. Spring is interpreted through the softness of colour and fabric.
Why not visit a Babaghuri shop and be the first to experience our spring collection?
We look forward to seeing you.
