RAW MATERIAL : LOTUS
The lotus is a flower submerging itself in the deep muddy waters in the evening only to re-bloom anew clean and fresh each morning. Its composure is one that symbolizes nobility and dignity. Inspired by this flower, LOTUS is an original blend oflong staple cottons with the precious Indian Suvin cotton to arrive at an exquisite formulation that creates this golden raw material. The natural oils that derive from Suvin cotton add a rich silky lustre to this cotton fiber. LOTUS cotton has an extremely creamy handle with a pure sheen which lends itself to its soft touch and quiet elegance, much like the lotus flower.
