“A rich purple warp and a simple ballet pink weft are a stunning combination of wild silk and organic cotton wrap.
Woven with organic combed cotton for a cushy softness, and with wild silk for a little extra strength and breathability. Malleable straight out of the bag this wrap will soften with a little love to become much more floppy and soft. Perfect for all ages, this wrap is a great all-rounder.
56% organic combed cotton, 22% wild silk 22% cotton, 65cm wide, 251gsm approx.”
Purple Reign
The names of the wraps/colourways are based on mythology and fairy tales – some might know them mostly from Disney movies. The names represent Dark (weft, villains) and Light (weft, princesses/maidens). Additionally the whole collection’s name (Purple Reign) is a nod to the song ‘Purple Rain’ by artist Prince who passed away on April 21st 2016, around the time the collection was completed. The definitive names were chosen by the admin team.
Purple pantone used is 2607C.
Victoriana
First released as ‘Victoriana Nahua’, this pattern was originally considered a ‘group exclusive’ pattern but was later released to Oscha for general use and could thus be used for preorders too.
Briar-Rose
The name by which princess Aurora, better known to the general public as “Sleeping Beauty”, was known while squirreled away by the three fairy godmothers to try and avoid her predicted fate by Maleficent.
