Anu Mini Dress, teal double dye

Our own, Dear Friend, mini dress. Designed to take you from the hottest Texas summer heat to the coldest Himalayan winter (with a little layering, of course). These beautifully airy dresses can be worn freely, or belted with a Dear Friend sash for a more formal look & hourglass shape. And, of course, we've included deep hidden pockets for your comfort. We can't help but think this is the perfect dress for all seasons! Thoughtfully designed by Bibi, in Austin, Texas. Ethically handcrafted by our amazing Fair Trade partners in Kathmandu, Nepal.  Named after the wonderful Anu, who leads pattern-making & garment production at our partner women's collective in Nepal. Anu is one of the most talented people we know, & performs creative miracles with a ready smile & infectious laugh ♥️ Details 100% handlomed cotton 100% low impact, azo free dyes Designed to be worn loose and comfy. We suggest sizing down if you'd like a slimmer fit. Gathered top Wide skirt  2" bottom hem for adjustable length (we know you can always take a hem up, but letting down a hem is usually impossible!) Deep, hidden inseam pockets Adjustable straps can be tied into or out of back loops for a variety of styles (parallel shoulder straps, cross back straps, keyhole back straps, rope tie straps, halter neck, choose your own adventure!) Breastfeeding friendly when worn reversed, with straps tied in front Option to belt with a matching or contrasting Dear Friend sash We love pairing this with a our Aarti Top as a vest for a little extra coverage. Or layer up in winter with a chunky cardigan, leggings, boots, & our Quilted Nabina Jacket. The women of our incredible partner collective in Nepal handloom the cotton, then color that fabric with gentle dyes, and finally hand make each piece. This hand loomed cotton just gets softer and comfier with wear. Each piece will be slightly different & unique due to the special nature of the handmade process.
