🌀 Is Your “Natural” Indigo… Really Natural?
We ran lab tests on indigo sold as 100% natural. The result? Aniline — a toxic petrochemical that should never be in true plant-based indigo was detected.
At The Colours of Nature, we now test every batch we buy. If it contains even a trace of aniline, we reject it. That’s why our naturally dyed products cost more. Authentic, fair, and clean - it's the true luxury.
Cheaper so-called “natural indigo" often hides synthetic contamination. We think you deserve better, so:
🌿 Ask for lab tests.
🌱 Support those who disclose.
🧵 Protect the real craft of natural dyeing.

A simple sign in a shop saying “bring your own bag” can spark daily awareness.
Each time clients see it, they’re nudged to bring their own bag, cutting plastic, inspiring others, and proving that small choices add up to big change. 💡
Change doesn’t always start with grand gestures. It begins with the little habits we repeat.
Ready for the switch?

The yummilicious orange Cascade dress is dyed with 100% natural Myrobalan and Indian madder, in-house by us of course.
Crafted in dobby cotton—a woven fabric with subtle texture and delicate geometric patterns created directly on the loom—it offers a gentle structure, breathable comfort, and a quietly refined, timeless elegance.
The dress features handy pockets, minimalist funky embroidery and pleating all around.
Photographed at a shoot with the American University of Paris.
Model: Simran wearing the dress in the midst of our locally available, sustainably grown and harvested wood. This wood is used in our pre- and post-dyeing area where all palettes except blue get dyed.
To buy, visit our online shop 🍃 Free shipping all India 💙 For international delivery please DM.
The scarf is a linen scarf in indigo shade 65. It is only available in our local boutiques but do check out our cotton-linen scarves online.
