If you believe in a zero-waste philosophy, have an appreciation for handmade, and wouldn’t mind wearing pieces that are a bit flawed (because aren’t we all?), our IMPERFECTS are for you.

A running thread, a stripe that overlaps another, a stain, a stitch less — to celebrate the uniqueness of these pieces and the people who handcraft them with passion, we are offering these handmade imperfects at markdown prices.

Our Imperfects are still the same in quality as our regular priced Cape and won’t wear out sooner. However, what makes these Capes different is that they have highly noticeable irregularities, such as patches with an incorrect weave or a colour difference when compared to the original design. 

One Size: Our versatile Waterfall Bolero comes in one size.

Timeless Design: The Bolero is a garment that is never out of style. The elbow length sleeves give enough cover if you are cold on your arms. The chic design dresses up any outfit, adding a touch of style and colour.

Small Batch Production: Handcrafted by our partner artisans at Bhuttico Weavers Co-operative in Himachal Pradesh, India, the fabric is woven on a traditional wooden loom using high quality, Woolmark certified yarn. 

Can I/others around me see the inconsistencies?

Yes, most of these inconsistencies are easily visible as they could be in the front of your Bolero or larger in size than what we typically consider a ‘regular irregularity’. A long stripe running down the front, for example, or a block of extra overlapping yarns will be visible but your Bolero will still be good for many seasons and years of wear.   

Why should I buy these? 

If you believe in a zero-waste philosophy, have an appreciation for handcrafted pieces and wouldn’t mind wearing pieces that are a bit flawed (because aren’t we all?), our imperfects are for you.

What if they get worn out sooner?

No, our imperfects are still the same in quality as our regular priced Bolero and won’t wear out sooner. What makes these Boleros different is that they have highly noticeable irregularities, such as patches with an incorrect weave or a colour difference when compared to the original design. 

Why don’t you sell them as regular pieces if the inconsistencies are so small/not visible?

Technically, we could. But as a brand we are transparent about our processes and pieces. 

Can you show me the exact inconsistencies in the piece I order?

No, we cannot individually send you photos as that’s logistically not possible. However, every product description includes some general pictures that will give you an overall idea.
