Spend a slow, easy afternoon with us at our Indigo Re-Dye Workshop. It’s a gentle, hands-on session where you can give an old shirt a new story, one dip at a time. We’ll have natural indigo and simple shibori tools ready for you to play with.

There’ll also be some homebaked butter cake and a choice of hot or cold drink to enjoy while things dry.

📍 Jari Reka, 14A, Jalan Dato Kathi, Kampung Bahru, Johor Bahru

Feel free to reach out for more booking details and session info.

A dress dyed slowly with time and tide.
Hand-dyed with natural algae and ketapang leaves, then deepened with iron, creating quiet, earthy tones that can never be repeated exactly the same way twice.

Designed with a light, natural ruffle that moves softly with the body. The textured fabric carries a raw, living feel — with subtle tie marks gently visible, telling the story of the dye process.

Finished with a hidden one-side pocket for quiet
practicality.

If it lingers with you, tell me.

As Chinese New Year approaches, many of us begin spring cleaning, sorting, clearing, letting go. Before an old shirt or dress is set aside, what if it could be renewed instead?

you can bring an old shirt or any clothing you’d like to renew. We’ll try out simple shibori techniques together—just folding, tying, dyeing, and seeing what patterns appear. It’s relaxed, hands-on, and no experience needed.

You’re welcome to renew at least TWO pieces old shirt, or other garments such as long skirts, jeans, or long dresses in natural material such as: cotton, linen, wool or silk (pricing varies depending on the piece). Each work will carry its own quiet transformation.

🧵 Workshop period: 16 January – 11 February

This piece moves like a quiet landscape against the body, cut loose, asymmetrical, and softened by hand woven cotton fabric from Myanmar and dyed with black tea leaves in tones of earth, shadow, and air. Along the diagonal seam, hand-stitched job's tear seed trace a gentle line, like footsteps or seeds carried by time. Raw edges and visible stitches keep the making present, honest, and human.

It is not a garment that asks for attention, but one that stays with, meant to be worn slowly, lived in, and felt.
