Work Overalls - Indigo Stripes
The ANJELMS Project
Modelled after my own vintage french work overalls. These have all the needed features for comfort, practicality and durability. They have adjustable shoulder straps, front and back pockets as well as a chest pocket. All buttons are inverted to avoid breakage and allow a neat finish. They even have a button fly feature making them the ultimate unisex piece. Ideal with a simple tee and sneakers, they can be dressed up with a crisp collared shirt and taken into the winter with a long sleeve top and boots.
Our bold indigo mud resist stripe is inspired by the French bold stripes favoured in summer and symbolic of the French Riviera.

Mud Resist
The Dabu or mud resist print is a traditional printing technique of Rajasthan. Textiles are block-printed with a mix of melasses and mud which are then covered in sawdust and dried. When dip-dyed in natural indigo vats, the block-printed details resists the dye and allows the patterns to form. It is a time-intensive process that requires a long curing and subsequent washing of the fabric.
