relax clothing

Welcome the heat of summer with the rich tones in Made Suciati's hand-embroidered blouse from Bali. Crafted from 100% linen, the sleeveless blouse features a relaxed fit and a hand-embroidered floral motif that covers the neck and chest of the top.

Perfect for casual occasions, these lightweight joggerpants are crafted from cotton twill and feature an elastic waist with drawstring closure, elastic ankle cuffs as well as side and back pockets. Designed by artisan Rathaphat in Thailand, the joggers are ideal for times that call for a relaxed, comfortable look.

An unassuming artichoke print adds a unique detail to this chic cotton and silk tunic. The soft and smartly styled top features pin-tuck detailing and a button closure on the front, three-quarter-length sleeves with kantha stitched cuffs, a mandarin collar, and side vents for a relaxed fit.

Indian artisan Shalabh hails from Lucknow, a city well-known for its skill with traditional chikankari hand embroidery. This long, relaxed cotton shirt showcases that technique, with lavish floral embroidery flanking the button placket and on the shirt's yoke. A further sprinkling of flowers decorates the back and three-quarter length sleeves of the terracotta-hued shirt.

This floral medallion with multi colored petals is designed to energize the chakras. From Alok Jain, the sterling silver necklace is studded with amethyst, quartz, iolite, citrine, peridot, garnet and carnelian. The gems total 1.3 carats and their colors relate to a specific chakra: clear and light purple stones are associated with the 7th chakra (awareness and wisdom); the purple, violet and indigo gems with 6th chakra (insight and perception), and the blue or light blue with the 5th, that of communication and truth. Green and pink stones are for love and compassion, linked to the heart, on the 4th chakra. For inner power and will, the 3rd chakra is associated with yellow gems, whereas emotion and sexuality are linked to red and orange gems for the 2nd chakra. Black gems are used to stimulate the 1st chakra, that of stability and security.

In Sanskrit, chakra refers to an energy vortex through which vital universal forces are channeled, and there are believed to be seven in the human body. When all seven are aligned the person feels a healthy sense of well-being.
