Colour and finishes
A finish that evokes the faded appearance of a garment that has lived in the sun. Tonal variation adds depth to the colour surface.
The detail that defines it.
Sunwashed describes a visual result, not a fibre or fabric construction. It can accompany different fabrics and processes; it does not mean the garment was left in the sun to dye it.
Three stages for adding colour.
The stage of dyeing and the way colour is fixed are different things. Pigments and reactive dyes can be used at different stages.
Care starts with understanding.
Follow the label, including drying instructions. Additional sun exposure is not a recommended way to preserve or reproduce the finish.
Your garment’s label has the final word. Check its composition and specific instructions before washing, drying or ironing.
Every garment has its own details.
Check each style’s product page for composition, weight, origin and finishes. This guide explains concepts rather than replacing its specific information.
