The Story
This tunic's dense, all-over floral vine print sits within a long Indian textile tradition of covering cloth in botanical pattern — climbing flowers, leaves, and buds repeated edge to edge so the print reads as a garden rather than a single motif. The deep indigo-and-cream palette is a classic pairing in Indian printed cottons and silks, prized for how the dark ground makes the floral linework stand out.
The embroidered yoke concentrates the most intensive handwork at the neckline, shoulders, and hem — the parts of a garment most visible and most often touched — a placement common across Indian embroidery traditions, where hand-stitching is used to elevate and frame a printed or woven base cloth rather than cover it entirely.
Together, the print and the embroidery reflect a garment-making approach still widely practiced in India today: pattern the yardage, then hand-finish the key details, so each tunic carries both a designed uniformity and the small irregularities of handwork.
A tunic like this starts as printed poly-silk yardage, cut and sewn to the tunic pattern before the embroidery begins. An embroiderer works the neckline, back, and hem by hand, following the floral outline with needle and thread to build up the dense navy stitching around the collar and placket. Because each panel is stitched individually, the exact density and placement of the embroidery shifts slightly from garment to garment — a signature of hand finishing rather than a flaw.

Questions & Answers
What is this tunic made of?
A poly-silk blend (72% polyester, 28% silk) with hand embroidery at the neckline, back, and hem.
How should I choose my size?
Check the flat garment chest and hip measurements against your own, then add 4-6 inches for a comfortable fit, since these measurements are taken with the tunic laid flat.
How do I care for the embroidery?
Hand wash separately to protect the embroidered threads; if you wash the fabric by machine, use a cold, gentle cycle, tumble dry, medium iron, and avoid bleach.
Will my tunic look exactly like the picture?
Close, but not identical — because the print and embroidery are handmade, expect small natural variations in color, pattern placement, and stitching from piece to piece.
Is this tunic sheer or lined?
The poly-silk fabric has a soft, fluid hand typical of this blend; side slits and a vented hem allow for easy movement.
