Calico embroidered top

* calico hemp - 55% hemp / 45% cotton
* a wild hemp drawstring at the bottom
* great embroidered flower feature
* lovely light material
* fairly traded
* Made in Nepal

A top for any occasion - for those smart / casual times or even work. The drawstring tie at the bottom and the beautiful embroidery detailing are done using Nepalese wild hemp which makes this top extra special.

Hemp is a strong natural fibre that can grow without the use of pesticides and herbicides. By using a percentage of hemp with the cotton in this calico material, this reduces the amount of water needed in the growing process.

Khusibu describe themselves as eco citizens. They are committed to working in the textile industry in Nepal which is currently struggling to compete on a global level in the midst of textile quotas and the constant global search for cheaper and cheaper manufacturing costs.
