This not only flatters the silhouette but also adds a graceful drape with every movement, ensuring comfort and freedom. Crafted from carefully selected natural cotton and linen, the fabric is comfortable and breathable. Its slight crispness allows the dress to maintain a structured silhouette that doesn't cling to the body, offering an effortless slimming effect.

It transitions seamlessly from everyday casual wear to more formal occasions. https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/54987788450_5725d89df6_b.jpg https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/54986615852_6fd0960951_b.jpg https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/54987788435_07c1836601_b.jpg https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/54987689238_b966619892_b.jpg https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/54987761134_a284c67e39_b.jpg **Cha Shan's Commitment to Slow Fashion** https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/48917390087_81ed15e699_o.jpg **● Understanding Fabric Composition** Cha Shan uses natural fiber fabrics, such as cotton and linen, for all our garments. Linen, in particular, is one of the earliest textile fibers used by humankind for clothing. Its natural breathability, moisture-wicking properties, coolness, and sweat-absorbing capabilities closely mimic the human body's skin, offering natural benefits like protection and temperature regulation. We also ensure that our premium linen fabrics have undergone pre-shrinking treatment. **● Understanding Who Made Your Clothes** Cha Shan's garments are meticulously hand-designed and pattern-cut by designer Wu Dai-Yun, refined through countless modifications. Each piece is then expertly cut and sewn by artisans. Unlike mass-produced ready-to-wear clothing, the advantage of handcrafted items lies in the enhanced overall refinement. Every detail, from the orientation of the fabric weave to the precise alignment of pattern pieces and the intricacies of sculptural cutting, contributes to a garment that looks and feels better on you. These are often sacrifices made in mass production for cost efficiency. Cha Shan's artisans meticulously bring these details back, from fabric selection to the finished garment you wear. This dedication from our artisans guarantees an elevated wearing experience for you. **● Buy Better, Wear Less** Fast fashion contributes to mass production, mass consumption, and mass disposal. Discarded clothing is the second-largest environmental threat after plastic. Cha Shan hopes to inspire gradual change alongside you. **● Designing Clothes for Taiwan** Cha Shan draws inspiration from Taiwan's life and culture. We incorporate cherished elements with innovative lines and cuts, balancing timelessness with fashion to create enduring Taiwanese apparel. Designed in Taiwan, handcrafted with care. We understand our impact may be small, but every beginning holds hope. Thank you for your support. **Washing and Care Instructions:** 1. Machine washable; wash dark and light colors separately.
