Wide legged cotton pants with ikat motif. A contemporary design from the design studio of Akaaro. The black and white motif is topstitched horizontally for a fantastic relief effect.

Ikat: precision work

Ikat is the name for a special tie-and-dye technique in which fabric is tied and dyed. With Ikat, the cotton yarn is tied off in the places where the paint is not allowed to penetrate the fabric. After staining, the bound areas remain unpainted. The process of binding and dyeing can be repeated several times when working with multiple colors. The fabric is then woven into the pattern in which the yarn is dyed.
