MATTER Prints: Paying Tribute to Timeless Textile Artisanship

Hanna-Amanda P. G. February 1, 2018

Singapore based MATTER Prints sources unique heritage prints and reinterprets them in a modern manner, making artisanal production sustainable and seasonless — it’s a private members’ club to those valuing longevity and provenance, above all. We were inspired by their dynamic dhoti, each adorned with an eclectic print, and (adding some power-woman poses!) particularly cherish the flow and motion this type of urban wear allows in the modern-day cityscape.

As I enter In-Ku on Warren Street, London, I am immediately struck by the simplicity of the store.
