Shimul Gamcha Shirt

Named for the shimul — the red silk-cotton flower that sets Bengal's trees alight every spring — this shirt carries the same unapologetic warmth. A fine-grid gamcha check in deep red forms the body, while a green-and-orange checked panel runs down the button placket like a strip of village field. Navy mul sleeves and collar cool it all down, so the colour reads bold, never loud.

Woven on handlooms by Bengal's gamcha weavers and pieced together panel by panel, it's the everyday cloth of Bengal, cut into a shirt you'll reach for all week.

• 100% handwoven cotton — breathable, soft and light for humid days
• Relaxed, gently flared A-line shirt silhouette that sits at the hip
• Classic collar and full button-front placket in contrast green gamcha check
• Sheer navy mul cotton elbow sleeves with a fine white stripe
• Woven striped border at the hem, front and back

Wear it untucked over straight-leg denims with kolhapuris for an easy weekday look, or knot it at the waist over a skirt for a Sunday bazaar run.

Size Chart (inches, relaxed fit)

Between sizes? Size down for a neater fit, up for a looser, oversized drape.

Each piece is handwoven and hand-pieced, so slight variations in check alignment, weave and colour are natural — the mark of the hands that made it.
