Crescent Field Hand Dyed Silk Dupatta blouse Made from handwoven tassar silkCrescent Field is a hand dyed silk dupatta created through controlled resist dyeing that forms large colour fields across the textile. Blush pink spreads across the centre while chartreuse yellow moves along the edges in curved transitions. During the dyeing process, sections of the silk are resisted so the dye enters the fabric in controlled areas. This creates soft boundaries between colours and reveals a crescent form that appears as negative space
