Gorgeous Dress with hand crocheted details from Las Ninas Textiles

Here is a wonderful description of the dress from Zara Elwood

"This is  one of our most popular dresses that we sell, created by Artisans in Mexico I have worked alongside for the past two decades, creating #slowfashion #sustaianblefashion 

It has been a passion of mine as the Australian Fashion Industry folded and turned their production "Off Shore" in the late 1980's_90's

I didn't want to deal with India and China and Bali and Thailand and Bangladesh where individuals get paid poorly to make a cheap quality garment, so the "Unsustainable Fashion Industry" continues on.

I had already travelled to most of those places and seen it for myself, it did not fit within my values and i knew i could find somewhere else that could share something amazing, something that you can wear for years, with a style that never goes out of fashion, this dress is called the Espanola and its divine you can see.

It is one size fits many 10-16 AUS sizing

Made of 100% cotton

Each seam and hem and sleeve has been hand crochet and the epaulettes are hand woven on a back strap loom"

It can be easily hand washed in cold water with a soft washing liquid. And line dry in the shade."
