Avyra Cotton Blockprinted Frill Dress Soft Pink

What is the print on this Avyra dress?

Small florals with grey-green leaves and touches of cream are printed across a soft pink ground. The motif is small and delicate, so the dress looks gentle and fresh, with the print flowing down the tiered, flared skirt.

What goes well with the soft pink?

Keep it light: white, cream or grey-green accessories, pearl studs and tan sandals bring out the softness. For a little contrast, a grey or sage cotton jacket picks up the leaves in the print.

How does the dress fit?

It has a relaxed fit in sizes 34 to 46 and is 45 inches long. The 17-inch sleeves have an elastic band in them, and the tiered skirt is flared, so it is comfortable to move, sit and travel in.

Why may my dress differ slightly from another?

Each motif is stamped by hand with a wooden block in Bagru, so the spacing and depth of colour can shift slightly between pieces. That variation is natural to hand printing and means each dress is a little different.

How should I wash it?

Handwash gently with a mild detergent and wash it on its own, since light shades show any colour transfer. Dry it in the shade to keep the pink soft and the leaves from fading.

Where can I wear the Avyra in pink?

It is made first for summer and travel: the cotton is light on the skin and allows airflow on hot days. It is equally comfortable for the office, a kitty party or brunch with friends, and ordinary everyday wear.
