Hand Block Print Cotton Dresses from Jaipur
Shivalaya Jaipur's dress edit brings together hand block printed cotton pieces made in Jaipur, India — cut for easy wear and layered with floral, paisley and abstract motifs. The current line-up leans into a soft palette of blues, turquoise and warm yellow, with paisley and floral repeats printed by hand onto 100% cotton. Because every length of fabric is printed with carved wooden blocks, small shifts in alignment and ink density are part of the character, so no two dresses look exactly the same.
These are versatile day-to-evening dresses: throw one on for a weekend brunch, a summer holiday, a garden wedding or a relaxed festive dinner. Plus sizing is available across the range, and the breathable cotton suits warm-weather travel as much as it does layering under a jacket in cooler months. If you're building a wider hand block print wardrobe, browse our kurta sets or the full Indian wear edit for coordinating pieces in the same craft tradition.

Frequently asked questions
- Every dress in this category is made from 100% cotton, hand block printed in Jaipur, India. Cotton is breathable and easy to wear year-round, which is why we use it across our floral, paisley and abstract prints. Unless a product page states otherwise, you can assume pure cotton throughout.
- We recommend a gentle cold wash — hand wash separately for the first few washes, since hand block printed cotton can release some surface colour early on. Dry in shade to protect the print, and iron on a medium setting on the reverse if needed. Avoid harsh detergents and bleach.
- Yes, plus sizing is available across our block print dress range. Refer to the size chart on each individual product page for the specific measurements offered for that style, as cuts vary between kimono gowns, midi dresses and maxi silhouettes.
- Each dress is printed by hand using carved wooden blocks stamped across the fabric, so slight variations in placement, colour depth and motif alignment are natural to the process. These small differences are a signature of hand block printing rather than a defect — they're what makes each piece one of a kind.
