The Sokha Banana Midi Dress is sure to become your favorite sundress. Sokha is all about movement with a relaxed A-line silhouette, asymmetrical neckline, and double flounce ruffle detail. The optional tie at the waist lets you style it with both a strait and cinched waist. Sokha is made from banana viscose, a vegan alternative to silk that comes from discarded banana tree stems. This material is soft and breathable, keeping you cool throughout the warm months. Read about how banana fabric is made on Made Trade Magazine.
Care: Hand wash with cold water, hang or lay flat to dry. Iron on low heat with a cloth or tea towel between fabric and iron to prevent burning. Do not bleach. Some waviness may be apparent - this is a natural characteristic of banana fabric, ironing will help.
