Pure Bandhani moves into a crisp collared shirt, balancing handcrafted irregularity with everyday tailoring.

Bandhani meets a familiar shape

A classic pointed collar, full button front and long sleeves place pure Bandhani inside the easy grammar of a tailored shirt.

Pattern allowed to stay irregular

Small white resist squares scatter across saturated purple while larger chains gather on one side. The asymmetry keeps the hand process visible.

Details that make it wearable

White buttons sharpen the contrast and neat cuffs finish the sleeves. The result answers the client’s inspiration without losing Stitch Bliss’s own handcrafted touch.
