Midnight Rhythm Modal Shirt

Bought this for my sister's roka and it went past what I expected. The weight of it has taken weekly wear all season and dries fast on the line.

Asked a friend at a party where hers was from and I would do it again in a heartbeat. The body of the fabric is fully opaque and moves well when you walk in a way photos cannot show. The proportion came out better than my usual store size and looks intentional rather than loose — a relief when ordering online.

The fall of the fabric stays breathable even fully covered and breathes beautifully to be specific. The midnight blue shade drew comments from people who never comment on clothes and reads expensive from across a room, which is what drew me in. Belted it as a shirt-dress and the fabric did not cling in the humidity.

The hand of the cloth has a quiet sheen in daylight and is thick enough to skip a slip. Wore it tucked in for a client meeting and it needed no adjusting all evening. It came wrapped in cloth rather than plastic and I appreciated that.

My first buy from a small Indian label and I have stopped looking elsewhere. The cotton has not a trace of scratchiness and washes clean with no special care, exactly as the listing promised. The tailoring is true to the size chart and hits at a genuinely useful length, which is why I trust their chart now.

Ordered this on my husband's recommendation and I have since ordered another. The texture feels cool against the skin and catches light through the slub; genuinely impressed.

Wore this with denim on a Sunday and it was the most comfortable thing in the room. The material keeps its shape through a full day and has kept its softness through the monsoon, better than pieces at twice the price.

The base cloth irons crisp in seconds and has that dry, cool handle good cotton should have — I checked twice. The dye work gets asked about unprompted and has not faded a shade, which I noticed straight away. Wore it with trousers to office and was asked about it four separate times.
