This Ajrakh Kantha Shirt brings together intricate pattern, traditional textile craft and a relaxed contemporary silhouette. Crafted from 100% cotton, the shirt features a patchwork composition of Ajrakh textiles in deep indigo, muted red and natural ivory, arranged to create a richly layered geometric design across the body.
The fabric is finished with visible Kantha running stitches, adding texture and celebrating the hand of the maker. A contrasting indigo Kantha collar and cuffs frame the patterned body, while antique-style metallic buttons complete the piece with a subtle vintage character.
Ajrakh is created through a meticulous process of hand-carved block printing, resist dyeing and repeated washing, traditionally using natural shades such as indigo and madder. The variations in pattern, stitching and colour are an inherent part of the craft, ensuring that every shirt carries its own individual character.
Designed in Sequent’s signature oversized, boxy fit, it can be worn as a statement shirt or layered as a lightweight jacket.
