Printed Vintage Long Shrug with Front Pockets from Jodhpur
Dry clean only. Store folded in a soft muslin pouch away from direct sunlight to keep the sheen alive.
Description
Jodhpur has always known how to dress a silhouette with effortless authority. This long shrug draws from the city's rich tradition of block-printed textiles, where geometric and floral motifs are composed with a painter's restraint. Rendered in art silk, the fabric carries a soft luminosity that catches light without demanding attention, draping in easy, forgiving folds from shoulder to hip. The front pockets, practical and thoughtfully placed, speak to a design philosophy that honours the wearer's daily life as much as her aesthetic. Available in a generous range of colours, from the sun-warmed depth of Jaffa Orange and Ochre to the quieter romance of Mahogany Rose and Mauveglow, each option feels considered rather than coincidental. One size accommodates a range of frames, making this a piece that moves with you through seasons and occasions alike. Wear it over a fine cotton kurta for an afternoon in the old city, or layer it above slim trousers and a tucked-in linen blouse for an evening that moves between heritage and contemporary ease.

Behind this piece
Jodhpur has long been a city of colour and commerce, where Rajasthani block-print traditions met the trade routes of the Marwar region. This shrug draws from that legacy of surface decoration, rendered here in art silk that catches light with a particular warmth. The vintage print sensibility nods to a photographic archive of old textiles, where faded pigments and softened motifs speak of time and use. The front pockets, practical and unhurried, are a quiet nod to Jodhpur's reputation for garments that honour the body's everyday rhythms as much as its desire for beauty.
How to style
Wear the Ochre or Jaffa Orange over a cream cotton kurta with wide palazzo trousers for an afternoon gallery visit; finish with oxidised silver hoops and kolhapuri sandals. The Mahogany Rose or Raspberry Rose reads beautifully over a fitted white kurti paired with cigarette trousers for a festive lunch. For a travel-ready look, layer the Blue Flower or Plein Air over a linen co-ord set and carry a block-printed tote; add beaded juttis to complete the register. All ten colourways welcome layering over solid, unhurried separates.
Fabric & care
Art silk is a woven cellulosic fibre with a lustrous finish that requires considered handling. Hand-wash in cold water using a gentle, ph-neutral detergent, working with the grain of the fabric rather than against it. Do not wring or twist; press water out gently and lay flat to dry in shade, away from direct sunlight, which can shift the print's tones over time. Iron on a low setting with a pressing cloth between iron and fabric. Store folded rather than hung, to preserve the weave's drape and prevent shoulder distortion across seasons.
