Black Manisha Maxi Cotton Kaftan Dress

This Manisha dress is historic to Pax Philomena as it is the first print that Jean Marie launched for the collection. Her first piece was called the Manisha tunic. This fabric is indeed one of our most difficult, and labour intensive fabrics to print. It  features a micro floral pattern discharge block printed by hand, on a very soft cotton pin tucked voile fabric. This fabric is hand pin tucked before printing, and is still lightweight, however it has extra dimension and body.The vertical striping effect is flattering to all figures. 

It took us two years to get this fabric and we are not certain we can get it again, so NOW is the time to grab this Pax Philomena classic!

Length 54"

One size with adjustable drawstring waist.

100% cotton voile

Hand wash cold or use a delicate machine hand wash cycle, with mild detergent, and in a lingerie bag to protect tassels. Hang dry. One separate wash before wearing is recommended

Made in India

This fabric is block printed by hand, creating subtle variations in the pattern. Each piece is a unique work of art worthy of honor and celebration.
